Plans

Initial plan was to see if I would get enough motivation in this Sunday to try to reach the hash using only public transportation.

Expedition

Middle of Sunday afternoon, I just remember that today's hash seemed pretty easy to reach by public transport. I had saved the link of the preliminary public transport planning I made Friday, and by opening it I see that if I went within in 10 minutes I would catch a favorable schedule. Also I grabbed my geohashing's essentials, put my coat on and ran a bit along the way to catch the S-Bahn in time.

The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful, the S-Bahn arrived a bit late but I managed to get into the regional train in time before its departure. Mammendorf being only the second stop of the train, the travel was short. The walk to the hash went smoothly, with the only exception being that the beginning of the track I planned to take to reach the hash had been buried by excavated dirt from a apparently new area to store containers (see pictures below).

The hash lay in the field within 2 meters from the edge, and was reached at 5:37 p.m. Fortunately the dirt was dry this time, and the crops were sparse and scattered enough to be able to avoid walking on any of them. I took the usual proofs and a panoramic view from near the hashpoint, and then headed back to the train station, hoping for a fortunate connection, because I hadn't planned at all the return trip.

While walking back to the station, I checked the app for the public transportation and it appeared that a train was departing in 10 minutes. By hurrying up a bit I made it just in time \o/. The next one being 40 minutes later, I was quite happy to catch this one.

The way back went uneventful.
