And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

Expedition

I had found from the maps that the site was opposite a fence on the other side of the road. I parked opposite the fence, and found that there was a discrepancy between my map-calculated site and the GPS... of 7 paces.

The fence into the field can be seen in one picture; it is a double fence, announcing that it is part of the adjacent military firing range and that trespassing is not a good idea. The second fence is electrified. So, I did not go in. I was within about 25m of the hash point.

I took pictures at the site then went shopping.
