I was close to the hashpoint at about 16:15. There was a narrow road next to a creek going between the railway tracks of the wye east of the Mühlacker station. On said road, the GPS told to go about 10 meters to the south. Unfortunately, that was not on the road anymore, but on the other side of the creek, also about 10 meters higher, on the rail embankment. Inbetween the dense thorns, on steep and slippery terrain (snow), it took me about half an hour to walk the last 10 meters.

Report

I was close to the hashpoint at about 16:15. There was a narrow road next to a creek going between the railway tracks of the wye east of the Mühlacker station. On said road, the GPS told to go about 10 meters to the south. Unfortunately, that was not on the road anymore, but on the other side of the creek, also about 10 meters higher, on the rail embankment. Inbetween the dense thorns, on steep and slippery terrain (snow), it took me about half an hour to walk the last 10 meters.

At the hashpoint, I took this video. Note how high above the road is was. Sorry for the bad camera work, I always had to hold on to a railing with the other hand not to fail down the hill.

More to come.
