== About ==

I am a Finnish outdoors person, geocacher and orienteer. I heard about geohashing at about the same time I started geocaching in 2013, but only in April 2019 did I actually get around to creating an account.

Home graticule: [[Joensuu, Finland | Joensuu, Finland (62,29)]]

My graticule partitioner (work in progress): [https://kripakko.neocities.org/geohash_regions]

My list of graticules and municipalities in the North Karelia region: [[User:Kripakko/North Karelia]]

I have created a template for displaying links to National Land Survey of Finland's topographic map: [[Template:MapSiteLink]]. Anyone in Finland is free to use it too if they want to.
