Plans

There was no actual planning for this one, but I decided to go there spontaneousy this sunday morning.

Expedition

This sunday morning I decided to go for todays geohash - simply because I needed to get out a little bit after spending the saturday at home. Even if it was a drive of 65 kilometers, I packed some equipment and drove to Schoningen, where I arrived 11:30 am. I parked my car in a shady place and wandered to the geohash. My mobile phone had some problems connecting, so I walked down a road I thought it was the right one, but it turned out to be the wrong one, after my phone connected again and showed me the location of the geohash!

So I took a little detour along a fence, which was between a field and the forest, and reached the actual path I wanted to follow a few minutes later. My luck was, that from here, an old logging trail lead me directly to the hash! I didn't even have to leave this path to reach an accuracy of less than one meter ;-) The hash was an old tree stump, so I sat down on it and enjoyed the silence here in the woods for a few minutes, made some pictures to proof my visit and turned around...

On my way back, I watched some cows on a field to the right, having a cornfield on my left - and suddenly I heard some noise from the cornfield and thought it might me some boars! But as I looked around, it turned out to be one of the cows, that managed to break out from the field, enjoying some corn... Guess both of us were scared for a moment, since the cow run away to find his way on his meadow and joined the other cows!

A few minutes later I reached my car and drove some kilometers to do another hike to catch up with some geocaches...
