[edit] Expedition

I am an active geohasher in Göteborg but now I'm visiting my parents in Ängelholm, so when I found out about todays geohash I persuaded my father to come along. We took of from Ängelholm on a sunny morning and fought the wind by bike towards Helsingborg. When we arrived close to the spot we realized that the hash was located in a small forest with tiny trees and a lot of half meter nettles on the ground. Dressed in just shorts and sandals we entered the nettle forest. After a lot of circulation and "leg-scratching" we finally found what we were looking for. On our way back we took a well deserved ice cream stop in Strövelstorp. That is the spot were the gps lost connection, and the track therefore ended.
