Expedition
I left home after work and cycled from Sélestat to Elsenheim. The geohash was located in a wheat field near the village. A couple were walking their dogs near the field, then a farmer came and planted a couple of stake in an adjacent field. As I didn't want to attract too much attention, I waited for everybody to go away, standing next to my bicycle, casually looking at my phone, for 10 minutes, with my high-vis cycling jacket.
Once I was relatively alone, I left the path and walked the remaining 200 meters. There were large unsown tractor tracks that crossed the field from side to side. As I approached the hashpoint, the wheat plants became smaller and sparser, and I managed to reach the coordinates without damaging the crops.
After recording proof, I cycled back home.
