This user earned the Geoflashing Achievement
|
Hashing unencumbered by clothing. (Despite being called geoflashing, no actual flashing of other people is required -- and in fact, please don't without permission.)
Perhaps the hash was at a nude beach and you decided 'when in Rome...', or maybe being alone in nature inspired a naturist spirit (as in the originating expedition by UnwiseOwl). If not alone, achievers are recommended to tell the following joke to their companions:
Person 1: "What are you eating under there?" Person 2: "Under where?" Person 1: "Ha ha, you're supposed to wear it, not eat it!"
Unlike most other achievements, this one doesn't add to the list of what to bring, however it's probably a good idea to bring clothes appropriate to the hash area even if they are temporarily removed to get this achievement.

Proof
Due to the sensitive nature of this achievement, proof is flexible; some previous attainers have simply taken a photo of all their clothes on the ground. If you do take a picture of yourself, it is recommended to have the customary ridiculously silly grin (trademark pending) on their face and to keep the evidence on the expedition and gallery pages "tasteful and artistic" (creative usage of https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SceneryCensor can be a good way to go with this). Pictures that leave no doubt as to the evidence of achievement may be linked from those pages without a preview, and with a warning (while doubtless most hashers have healthy body positivity, some prefer not to see these sorts of things -- and geohashing is an all-ages sport [so only adults as considered by the jurisdiction where the wiki servers are hosted are allowed to post any proof besides the clothes-on-the-ground one]).
Variants and combinations
Combining with birthday geohash achievement
The two achievements together may properly be known as a birthday suit geohash!
Honorary Mention: Underwear Geohash
Some people may want to follow the spirit rather than the letter of the achievement, and that's fine.
