Location

The hash lies at the southwestern edge of the new quarter Riedberg of Frankfurt am Main. Nearly all of the area seems to become rebuilt, but here are some small trees, where the planning says, they shall stay.

Plans

I will be there at 4 pm for a xkcd-meetup. I have to hitchhike to Frankfurt, which means I have to make a detour over the service station of Göttingen. Maybe I can do some exploration for openstreetmap.

Expedition

At first I tried to hitchhike from the Dresdener Straße in Kassel, but for one and a half hours no cars stopped. Then I changed to the place behind the Auestadion and there a car stopped after five minutes.

I arrived at the service station Taunusblick at 14:13. Then I walked from the service station to the hash. I arrived there at 15:27, but 90 meters away. But from several places around the hash I couldn't reach it, the mud was too deep.

Retro-expedition

On the 2022-12-20 I made a walk around some northern parts of Frankfurt and it was only a short detour for looking at the site of 2014-01-04 50 8 and I made it. I found the tree standing there but I hadn't the coordinates of that expedition. And I planned an other walk around that area and wanted to look for the exact hash. I took the same way and I came nearer and nearer and at the end I found me just at the information point with the explanation text. And I noted that the tree is no longer a natural monument.
