Location

On a cornfield near Gruenberg, Hessen.

Participants

Plans

To use a short break in continuous rain and get a Birthday Geohash Achievement.

Expedition

Since the hash point was just 20km out and fairly easy to reach, we could not NOT go. When the weather cleared up, we drove out and parked some 400m or so off the hash coordinates, when a sign prohibited us from driving on. We found the hash to be located just on the boarder of two fields. These were planted with just enough space to walk in wihtout causing damage to the crop, fortunately. One row into the corn field, we reached the hash coordinates without even doing the GPS dance. A fairly easy expedition, and there was cake. :)
