Plans

Had a vacation week in Blekinge and checked possible geohashe locations everyday. This day it would me possible to access 56 15 for our first time.

Expedition

Did see on a satellite photo there would be a road close to the geohashe, so it would most probably be accessible by car. Drove the way up north of Rödeby and into the forest. The road was not used regularly, but in the summer by owner of summer cottages. Came really close with the car, but the geohashe location seemed to end up in a wet area. Tried to get a lock on the satellites by moving about, jumping over the wet parts, eventually I managed to get a satellite lock and a picture. Back into the car the GPS suddenly decided the geohashe location was in the car? Drove then back to our rented cottage in Blekinge.
