Location

On a small mountain near Colroy-la-Grande.

Participants

Expedition

My mother had suggested that I come visit her for the weekend in her home in Colroy-la-Roche, a (relatively) remote village in the Vosges mountains. Today's coordinates were conveniently located in Colroy-la-Grande, only 8 km from there and, more importantly, more or less in the same valley: the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

I departed at 13:30 and cycled from Sélestat to Saales via the Steige Pass. Shortly after exiting Saales, I left the road and took a mountain path across the railway and around the Voyemont mountain. I abandoned my bicycle near the remains of a WW1 bunker, 20 meters below the coordinates, and hiked the between the trees up to the hashpoint.

There I waited a few minutes for the clock to mark 16:00.
