Plans

Make a little detour on my way home from Koblenz, stop in Dossenheim and walk to the hash.

Expedition

Well, I had the idea to swing by yesterday, but didn't realy believe that I would do so. But the weather was so great that I just couldn't resist. When I reached home I had driven 173 KM instead of the 155, I needed for the way there, so I just made a 18 KM detour what is within my fuel policy. I stopped the car near the purification plant of Oppenheim. From here I walked southwards along a dike, and lot of other people were out in the sun either. Soon I reached the airfield and had to walk all the 2 KM of its length. Behind the airfield was a little forest wih a hash in it. It was very dense, and I didn't find a way into the copse from this side. After a while I reached the river Rhine, and the copse seemed a little less dense from this side. But after the first row of trees and bushes I came at a wide area of reed. Still 100 m to go and that didn't look passable at all. Well, just have a last look at this falen trunk over there (is it worth to creep through the bushes?).

Well, short story long, there was a kind of path next to the trunk and on the other side of the trunk ended the reed. Thanks to the weather of the last days the path was almost dry, and I could cross the reed area. I still had to creep through a lot of bushes and climb several more falen trunks, but in the end I reached the hash and the way there was hard enough to reward me with a MNIMB.
