Location

In a seed plot, near Pohlheim (Hesse).

Participants

Plans

Use good weather to go to the nearest geohash which is 5 km away.

Expedition

We went from Giessen to Pohlheim and walked among green and wet fields. Then we saw that the wanted field is a sown field. Rincewind used the last 64m a tractor track to approach the hash point as closely as possible. He was lucky :-) At least we did the stupid grin photo in front of the seeded field and walked back to the car.

Photos

Coordinates reached, yay!
dirty shoes, again...

Yep, we did it.

Achievements

Yakamoz and Rincewind earned the Land geohash achievement

-We drove from Giessen to the next geohash point in Hesse in the afternoon. Google maps showed us that this geohash point would be in the woods. We pulled into a forest track and went about 400m along this road. Then we had to go between trees. The weather was fine, there were no wild boars, the sole obstacle was high-grown stinging nettle for the last 30m. We reached the geohash point and left it contentedly but with itching hands.
