Today's Location: [Palm Beach, Florida] The Palm Beach graticule is home to all of Palm Beach county, about half of Broward county, and parts of some neighboring counties. Portions of this graticule are in the Atlantic Ocean, Lake Okeechobee, and the intracoastal waterway. The southwest portion of the graticule is dominated by the Everglades, a good location for either the MNIMB Geohash or the MNB Geohash. The northwest is primarily lake and large expanses of farmlands which may or may not be accessible. Most locations in the eastern half of the graticule should technically be accessible, but many will land on private property, so may need authorization.

Active Geohashers

Aperfectring - Still waiting for the opportunity for his first geohashing experience.

Upcoming Geohashes

2008-06-20 [map] - Near FL-710, about 1.3km (0.8mi) walk along unpaved (gravel or dirt) roads, about 10m off the dirt/gravel road according to google maps. Aperfectring is going to attempt this one sometime between 7 and 7:30PM, assuming he can get a hold of a GPS, the weather holds up.

2008-06-21 - Near US-441 along Lake Okeechobee, just north of the intersection with FL-76. It is about 75m (250ft) from the frontage road there, so it is a good candidate for the Saturday meet. Miami geohashers may want to attend this one, since theirs is in the middle of the Everglades, about 25km(15mi) from the nearest road.

2008-06-22 - About 60m(200ft) off of N140th Ave, just north of 47th Ct. N in the West Palm Beach area.
