[edit] About

I live in Würzburg, Germany (near 49.8, 9.94) and work in Schweinfurt (near 50.05, 10.25). On my way to work I am able to visit hashpoints in a large area, depending on which route I use.

[edit] Gratuitous ribbons

Is it true that Danatar earned the Hashdog gratuitous ribbon for petting a dog at the hashpoint? In principle, yes. But he didn't pet the dog. And the dog was not at the hashpoint. Instead, the dog owner turned around 15m from them and fled. (2009-09-03 49 10).

Earlier, when I didn't have a GPS, I relied on Google Maps, the Bavarian Land Survey Office's maps (with topographical information) and OpenStreetMap.org to find the hashpoints. This meant that whenever there was no special landmark (intersection, house...) at the hashpoint, I could only guess where the hashpoint was. If the hashpoint was e.g. in a forest 200 m from a track, I considered the coordinates reached after 200 large steps into the underbrush.

Although I always try to get to the exact spot, if the hashpoint is in a field with crops or in a very dirty/wet place without any obstacle between me and the hashpoint, I am satisfied at the edge of that area.

These are my hashscots. To the left is Scott(y). He's a Hashhog (Erinaceus terramigrans) and visits as many hashpoints as possible with me. On the right side you can see Polly (very creative name, I know) the Pirate PARRRot (or Parrot Pirate?). Like every true pirate Polly only visits waterhashes, but a rich hashpoint near the coast might be plundered as well.

This is my heavy charger. He is heavy (no carbonbreds in his lineage), almost unstoppable (changing the brakes does not change anything) and carries me wherever I have the strength to take him. He is not born for far and fast journeys, more for the rocky wilderness. Unfortunately, I'm not born for the rocky wilderness, so his usual terrain are paved roads, downhill whenever possible. Nontheless, he has been my trusted steed for about 10-12 years.

For those of you who use Firefox: Have a look at the minimap sidebar add-on. It supports Google Maps and OpenStreetMap and it tells you the exact coordinates the cursor is on.
