From Geohashing
Lol-asg.png 35 / m / 49,11

My home coordinates are plusminus 48.53,9.06 in the city of Tuebingen, Germany now in Erlangen, I live in 49,11 but 49,10 is very close to my home, too.

I want to geohash mostly by bicycle or public transport, but I will make short detours (less than 5km one way), if a geohash is near to a route I'm driving by car anyway.

Geohashes

I started with geohashing after years of just watching in 2015. I did it for a two years, then other stuff happened and I didn't check coordinates anymore regularly.

My current goal is to go at least once per month on a geohash.Lol, I never did this anyway. My current goal is one geohash per year, that would be much more than 0 between 2018-2022 :)

Not attempted

Here I collect geohashes I didn't attempt, but still are noteworthy somehow. This list is likely incomplete.

2017-06-23 46 5 46.827141,5.727578 Far and foreign graticule; we even drove 200m close to it on the street next to it on the correct day. However terrain is way too steep to reach it.

Achievements

Only the first ribbon is listed for achievements I acquired more than once.

Minesweeper

For an easy overview take a look the awesome map by NWoodruf or use the table below. It contains the first successful hash for each graticule. I only included graticules for which I know I will be travelling through or staying in at least for a few days per year and thus there is a small possibility to get them, if the algorithm is kind enough! Those with brackets are even more unlikely to get anytime soon, a star (*) means I attempted this graticule but failed.
