Location
On the side of Highway 99 just before it meets up with King George.
Participants
- thepiguy is determined to make a double hash along with the Vancouver/Nanaimo coordinates.
- Elbie wants a quality break from studying differential equations.
- Robyn wants to make this work out somehow with the Vancouver graticule geohash.
Planning
Ironically enough, the main problem with the geohash being on the highway is accessibility! As thepiguy learned on his way to this hash this section of the highway is off-limits to cyclist, there may also be restrictions about stopping on the shoulder since it's such a major road. It's too accessible!
That being said, thepiguy doesn't care. He's going to take the geohashingmobile in the morning and visit the hash. If need be he'll pretend he's having car troubles, or that a hub cap flew off.
- Wait! I've got it! I'll pretend that I stopped to try and figure out my GPS and that I think it made me take a wrong turn! People are always getting confused by technology!
All I have to do is drive down the highway and stop at the right spot. There's a small bridge right before the hash, so assuming I'm traveling the speed limit (or something close) the hash should be 10 seconds after the bridge.
