Location
Today's location is in the forest at the border between Germany and the Czech Republic near Steinigtwolmsdorf (DE)/Lipová (CZ). According to G. Maps the spot is 2 meters from the border on the German side, according to OSM it's also barely on the German side. There is a walking path going along the border that according to OSM near the hashpoint is around 5 meters on the Czech side of the border.

Plans
- Danatar: I will take the train and bus to Steinigtwolmsdorf, then walk the rest of the way in order to be at the hashpoint around 15:30, then wait until 4 p.m. before returning. Why visit this hashpoint? First, I have time today and the weather is nice. Second, it's a Saturday so I will make progress towards the centurion achievement. And most important, I have not yet reached a hashpoint in the Czech part of this graticule. The spot is so near to the border that I guess because of GPS inaccuracy the exact coordinates will wander around a bit and fall not only on German but sometimes also on Czech ground, making this a hashpoint that is in two countries. From the maps the path is certainly on Czech ground so if I get the coordinates on or directly next to the path it would be in the Czech Republic. I hope there are some boundary stones to make it easier.
