From Geohashing

I've been watching the fun lately and since this location is less than 1km from my house, it looks like I have no excuse but to join in. From what I can see it's a completely fenced in yard. Possible approaches would be to walk in as far as the driveway or access from Monashee where there seems to be a trail entrance into the park which could lead you to the back fence. They have a pretty small backyard, so the back fence shouldn't be more than 6 metres from the hash point. I don't have a proper GPS, but I do have a 'you-are-here' pointer on my phone. If anyone would like to join me on this hash, let me know. I'm available all day up until 5pm. SueB 16:54, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Awesome. I'll have an eta soon. -Robyn 16:19, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I think I'll be there about 11:30. I'm the one with the dinosaur. Also, Rhonda still has my batteries. -Robyn 16:58, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
Ack, you would be there really early. I'm still not sure how to get my bike over the bridge! Looking, though. -- Rhonda 17:00, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Are you planning on going to the front of the house or the back? SueB 17:01, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Dammit, I slept in. Lets see if I can catch you folks before you decide to leave. -yangman 18:32, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I am trapped behind a desk and envious of you all - Xore 21:03, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

What a perfect day to be out in the sun! Glad you all had a great time! Thepiguy 14:23, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

lost?

"Is it lost if you know which body of water you're looking at, and where you have to be in relation to it, but are not immediately sure how to get there without going through an industrial site?"

I believe the term you are after there is "very slightly geographically embarrassed" (but only very slightly, since it sounds like the industrial estate was the only real problem). Also, sounds like a fun expedition. mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 22:37, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

I called it "exploring" ! -- Rhonda 22:50, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
And Exploring was our intention. We could have followed HAStings to begin with instead of trying to take the bike route, but that bike route just kind of ended at the 'beware of bears' sign. Perhaps they expected everyone to be eaten there, so figured it didn't matter. -Robyn 23:12, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Photos

Woot, got a couple photos up! It's an accomplishment because I'm usually terrible at processing photos in a timely manner. There's someone still waiting for Thanksgiving photos from me... --Yangman 08:28, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
