Participants

Expedition

The first expedition in San Marino, and indeed within the whole graticule of 43,12! I was on a solo trip through northern Italy by bus and train since 14 November. I had spent one night in nearby Rimini and then one night in San Marino, and my plan before the hash was revealed was to spend another night in Rimini and then travel to Bologna. When the coordinates for Friday came out on Wednesday (due to Thanksgiving), I was actually in the country of San Marino (I sat at 43. 12., only 3 km from the hash, when I found out).

It was incredible luck – a geohash only lands within San Marino around three times per year on average, and it happened right after I planned to leave the region. Only on five days could I have attempted an expedition in San Marino. What's more, the hash was near a path and within walking distance from the capital!

I changed my plan to spending a third night in Rimini, then taking the shuttle to San Marino in the morning of the 26th, walking to the hash, taking the shuttle back, collect my backpack at the hostel and continue to Bologna. However,

The above text was written shortly after the expedition, I will soon write the rest of the report.
