12 kms
The shit is. I did not exactly save this point in my mind.
So have to wait 2 days and maybe get farther.
Did not think I would have been so close.

and where did you say more or less ?  ;D

The distance seems not in a straight line... I drawed 2 circles with km's and location i got from a fellow seeker. We choose the intersection point, what was still 329 km away...  :think ???

Hmm so it could be distance by road? Makes it even more difficult..dont know how people already managed to get right spot. What am I missing? The clue itself is easy but not enough...i will try my distance by road instead of radius and see what happens.

Honestly, I got it partly by luck. I also drew circles according to my wife's attempt and mine and actually it was pretty darn effective. Later, after a lot of "driving" on Street View eventually, after five or six fruitless attempts and searching for unsearchable, I've found it. And I was actually too ambitious and now miss this pure feeling of adventure, so keep it fresh and don't cheat! This is a really cool little game.

I have one road of interest after my last attempt. 2 possible spots on this road after drawing my radius. The mountains however do not match and I have travelled the whole road nearly  :o

Will see what the next clue says but I feel I wont find it....
