Location

Today's location is a 3-way junction of the Raiffeisenstraße in Klingenberg, a borough of Heilbronn.

  • District: Heilbronn
  • Administrative region: Stuttgart
  • State: Baden-Württemberg (EU:DE:BW)
  • Country: Germany

Participants

Plans

It's just the next village from my home cave's village. Really easy. Will walk or cycle there. Planned time of arrival is 15:00 CET.

Expedition

I creeped out of my cave and called together the trolls at 13:45. The sun was shining from a blue sky, covered just with some fleecy clouds - nobody would suspect the Spanish Inquisition a troll attack in this beautiful weather. So we marched out of the village, over the Ship Canal's bridge past the lock and the hydroelectric power station. On the way to Klingenberg we met a lot of dogs, but those were too cowed by our frightening presence for patting. After rushing through the open town gates we stormed the castle hill to reach finally the hashpoint. While I decorated a post with a Geotag, the other trolls faned out to find something loot-worthy. But.. some creatures must have gotten there first: The streets were deserted (apart from a few weapons lying around), all houses barricaded and the castle in ruins. Additionally no allies showed up. So we were forced to return home - victorious but with poor haul.

Tracklog

No GPS - no log.
