I started at home at 12 o'clock, took the trams 7 and 8 to Kaufungen-Papierfabrik (paper plant) and started there to hitchhike at 12:45. After some minutes I got a car to Hess. Lichtenau, I passed there the city, then after some minutes again I got a car to Spangenberg, where I arrived at 13:45. Then I walked for three kilometers along the country roads and after crossing a meadow I entered the forest.

Just at that place I was 140 meters away from the hash. At first I could walk easily upwards, but then I slided some 20 meters on my knees, because the hill was so steep.

proof 1 and proof 2. I needed not to dance around, instead the pointer of my garmin danced around, sometimes being meters away, sometimes only two meters away. I couldn't get a mark nearer than these two meters.

After the meal I started to go home. While the meal I heard raptors from the other side of the mountain ridge. So I tried at first to walk across the ridge, but I found out that there was a deep valley and I could not enter the valley from my side. But I could see the raptors, making something like haymaking but with big trees.

With the help of these two sticks I stalked down the hill. For the way up I needed 15 minutes, for the way down I needed 30 minutes.

After a long walk around the hill and through the forest I entered the fields of Spangenberg and from the first place I had a good view to the castle of Spangenberg.
