Location

A field near Dertingen (Wertheim), close to the Autobahn A3

Participants

Plans

Planning to be there around 14:00, maybe later, look around and walk a bit. Meetup point is directly on a field, won't go on it. Not sure if that counts as successful expedition then?

Expedition

Actually only arrived at 15:00. It was quite cloudy and windy, not much enjoyable, but that's what warm clothes are for.

I had to to a bit of "climbing", but it was on a path. It was really quiet, except for the A3, no one else to see there. It turned out I could walk directly to the geohash point, on the "field" was only grass, didn't look really cultivated, maybe the satellite pictures were quite old.

I walked around for a bit, did a coffee brake and found some twigs, out of which I left some marker. Let's see if anyone will find it, or how long it will last. Afterward, I went through Dertingen itself by car. Was bigger than I expected.
