Expedition

It was a rainy morning, but the afternoon was supposed to be dry in Witten. Instead of starting earlier in the morning, I timed my arrival for the early afternoon and cycled to Osnabrück Central in the late morning, took the train via Münster and Dortmund to Witten-Annen Nord, and cycled the rest of the distance.

The coordinates were in a hilly forest among some ferns. Performing the Dance™ was difficult because my GNSS reception was really weird. It took forever until the map showed that I had left the path and the reception continued being laggy.

At the site of the Geohash, a bunch of ferns had been flatted, looking suspiciously as if someone had done a hash dance there earlier, and tracks leading away from the site in a different direction. I am 90% sure a Ninja Geohasher had been there earlier, and the only reason it is not 99% is because it had been so rainy until now.

After locating the coordinates and recording proof, I got back onto the main path, cycled to Dortmund, took the train via Münster to Osnabrück Central and cycled back home.
