I geohash in the Vernon, British Columbia and Mabel Lake, British Columbia graticules. It's a great place to be if you like to get to the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately it also means there's no other geohashers around.

Getting Around

I drive a Subaru Legacy, which is a great car for all the unpaved roads here. It doesn't always cut it on the logging roads and four-wheeler trails, which are required traveling for most hash points. Nevertheless, I think I surprise some of the pickups passing by, and sometimes myself. I had been considering a dual-sport motorcycle, and since geohashing I want one even more!

Photography

I enjoy photography, and geohashing gave me the last push to purchasing a digital SLR. My photos taken up till the August 28th hash are with a point & shoot, and those after should be with the SLR. If you ever want a print-quality copy please let me know, I'd be flattered.

Getting in Touch

Feel free to leave anything on my discussion page. Also, I sometimes can be found in the #geohashing channel on Foonetic.
