Latest revision as of 16:57, 29 July 2015

Just for fun, I decided to make a little gallery of as many ways as possible that we geohashers are reaching our geohashes. Finding a completely novel way to reach a geohash just so you can post it on this page is encouraged.


land

  • Danatar took the train from Heidelberg to Vogelweh.

  • Geohashers can reach many places by bus.

  • Inner-city hashpoints can also be reached by tram.

  • Robyn navigated oil well roads in the bush on a terrible mountain bike.

  • If half your bike is missing, you can still use it as a unicycle.

  • Arvid has logged hundreds thousands of geohashing kilometres on a recumbent bicycle.

  • The Bike-Train combination from Felix Dance's 2009-05-26 -37 145 failed expedition.

  • ilpadre walked 11 km to here.

  • When the spot is on top of a mountain, you need to climb up.

  • Erica bagged the youngest geohasher award by arranging to be pushed to the site in a stroller.

  • Ekorren rode a horse to the geohash.

  • Another way to get to the spot with someone else's help is to hitchhike.

  • relet has reached a geohash on his longboard.

  • Lots of geohashers ride motorcycles.

  • Cars are quite popular for hashing. (aperfectring)

  • This is Carlos, a carsharing car, who accompanied relet on several expeditions.

  • Using an ambulance usually doesn't get you to the hashpoint and even on the return trip you should try to avoid needing one.

air

  • EvilTaylor bagged the Airhash achievement in a single-engine airplane.

  • Robyn has attended a few using a twin-engine airplane.

  • When the hashpoint is really far away, an airliner might be needed to reach it.

  • Robyn & Wade chartered a helicopter for a globalhash.

  • dawidi reaches his hashes by proxy using a model paraplane.

water

  • Jack brought others to a hash in a sailboat.

  • Coastal geohashers sometimes need to take a ferry.

  • Foot ferries are the smaller version, for pedestrians and bikers only.

  • Inflatable rubber boats have provided access to at least two geohashes.

  • Thepiguy completed this gruelling geohash in a kayak.

  • On quieter waterbodies, a rowing boat might be used.

  • A group of 9 geohashers took pedal boats to get to a water hash.

  • Robyn, Rhonda and Wade took a water taxi to an island geohash.

  • During an exhausting expedition, it's convenient to let somebody else do the work to push you along in a punt.

  • Robyn & Wade built a makeshift raft on which to attempt a Pirate waterhash.

  • Taner swam to the 2011-07-03 -38 144 geohash.

  • When the hashpoint is a bit deeper in the water, geohashers hold their breaths and dive down to it.

  • And when it's a lot deeper, they just use SCUBA gear.
