Location

In a forest near Altomünster, N of München

Participants

Scherzkeks, DerFlob, The_T-Man and Locationmaster

Plans

Get there by car, go for a walk at the site. Scherzkeks is the designated driver.

Expedition

After numerous days of beautiful weather (see 2012-04-26 48 11) there were some clouds around this time, creating a humid yet still very hot atmosphere. Scherzkeks and The_T-Man asked Locationmaster whether he would join in (which he did), got in the car and picked up DerFlob at his place. After a rather long drive (because Scherzkeks had set the navigation system to "shortest route", so we missed the highway) we arrived at Altomünster, a village about 30 km NW of München, which is actually a bit closer to Augsburg than it is to München.

We started walking out of the village and towards the general direction of the hashpoint. En route, we encountered a hashcat which happened to look a bit like Scherzkeks's cat at home. The_T-Man and Locationmaster patted the cat (for the record: the hashcat was cooperatively purring) and we continued through a fallow field and into the forest. In the forest we had to take a couple of detours with various degrees of wilderness to be passed. At the hashpoint, we constructed our so-far most elaborate camera stand and took a group picture. On our way back, a different route was taken, so that we had walked in a circle-like path about 11 km overall.
