Location

The hashpoint is located on a narrow meadow strip with apple trees north of Einhausen in the Graticule Mannheim (49, 8). The blooming trees and the big one nexto the hashpoint are to be seen with Google Earth.

Participants

Q-Owl

Expedition

The weather was very cloudy but dry and I used the lunch break to go outdoors. I reached the meadow at 12:30. I took my boots because of the wet gras. The narrow but long meadow is a little natural reserve between the fields next to it.

The hashpoint is situated near the oldest and biggest tree. After I 'danced' a little, to find the best reading for a screenshot. Then I took some fotos, did a little diabolo juggling (see my homepage) and hurried back to work.

I had not enough time to get to the final of the geocache GC27GXQ about 300 m from the hashpoint.

+I reached the meadow at 12:30. I took my boots because of the wet gras. The narrow but long meadow is a little natural reserve between the fields next to it.
-The weather was cloudy but dry and I needed recreation and recovery, so the hashpoint was a good reason to go outdoors.
-The field was easy to be found, but fresh sowed barley or rye grew there as little plants. Since I don't like to tramp onto my future  beer or bread (or worse to perform the 'GPS dance' on it), I had to keep on traktor tracks crossing the field. And I also do not need to encounter a blustering German farmer.^^ One muggel who asked me, what I was seeking here was enough for this afternoon.
-I tried three traktor tracks until I found out which would lead   next to the hashpoint. So the GPS device at least displayed about 9.3 m to the point with an accuracy of 4 m. Good that I had rubber boots in the car and best to wear them here!
-About 0.9 km from the hashpoint, but in direct sight (in the west, at the edge of the wood) was the [http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC36MH4_3-2-1-go GC36MH4] geocache which we could not log in april, because a hunter with gun sat next to it on a little 	raised hide. But now it was to be found without the hunter.
-After this I had some time near the harbour of [[wikipedia:Gernsheim|Gernsheim]], watchng a container ship to be loaded, the ferry sailing across the river and the calm streaming of the Rhine River during sunset.
+The hashpoint is situated near the oldest and biggest tree. After I 'danced' a little, to find the best reading for a screenshot. Then I took some fotos, did a little diabolo juggling (see my [http://www.klicktipps.de/jonglieren-diabolo.php homepage]) and hurried back to work.
-(I am not used to write English texts. So you may correct it if you find mistakes.)
+I had not enough time to get to the final of the geocache [http://coord.info/GC27GXQ GC27GXQ] about 300 m from the hashpoint.
