Expedition

atadxart I started at around 16:00 CET by driving with my motorcycle an reached the end of the road about 300m away from the hashpoint. From there I hiked the last few meters through the woods towards the hashpoint and reached the point at est 16:30. It was little scary because today's wind speeds where about 60 km/h with top speeds getting as high as 90 km/h so i constantly was looking at the trees. I was lucky because the hashpoint was not fenced ( 15m south and 12m west where fences) and it was about less than 1 meter aside to a footpath so it was really easy to get there. I started to find the exact point with my GPS - so I'm sure I was at the point at some time - I left the Geohashposter (http://geo.crox.net/poster/2014-03-16_48_16) made the obligated pictures and waited till 17:15 but no other hasher arrived. While waiting I looked around and found some Bärlauch (=ramson/bear leek/wild garlic) I took some for a soup for dinner.
