Expedition

Kilchberg is a southern suburb of Zürich, and basically only known for a chocolate factory which is located there. The hash looked to be fairly easy to reach, obviously on a parking lot, and less than a 10 minutes walk from the closest train station. So i went. Thanks to the excellent suburban train system here in Zürich, there is a train every few minutes in direction Kilchberg, and the town is just a ten minutes ride from Zürich main station. The hash was easy to find. When i was lurking around on the spot, a resident from a nearby house opened a window a shoutet in my direction if i was searching for something. "Yes, and i found it, thanks!" was my reply. The woman seemed to be satisfied with that answer and didn't call the police. Thank you, old lady! I took a few pictures which all turned out to be too dark to see anything and left home. The geohashing season 2014 in Zürich has started!
