Plans

The hash was very near to my old home (almost couch potato honorable mention) and my mother and sister still live there with my nephews. Since I was unable to visit them and the hash myself, I absolutely had to convince at least some of them to visit the location for me.

I asked around and my mother was willing to go there, even if she did not understand why. She thought this would relate to geocaching and expected to find a small container of some sorts. Since I did not know what she might randomly find there, it was hard to explain that most likely "nothing special" would be there, but she should look around in the area if anything noteworthy happens to be there. I suggested she should prematurely use this as an Easter-adventure for her grandchildren and hide eggs exactly there for no apparent reason.

I then explained I needed some sort of proof of her adventure and we came to the conclusion, that photographing the phone with the location would be the fastest and easiest, albeit not the most elegant way. (I did not want to risk her being unable to take screenshots.)

Expedition

My mum is awesome! My nephews had some other events and could not come. But she decided to go anyway and went alone to the point (without hiding easter eggs). She also managed to take (blurry) images of her phone exactly at the location with another phone. She then reported the successful expedition to me and explained that nothing of interest happened.

BUT: she then went there again to take pictures of the surrounding area even though I explained it was not necessary at all. And while taking the pictures, she noticed that the precise hash location was a bald spot in the field where only smaller brown and withered plants grew. How awesome is that?
