Meetup time 1pm for the Innsbruck graticule

Hi all,

I was thinking to shift the Saturday meetup time for the 47 11 graticule to 1pm. The alps cover more than half of the area of this graticule. Being only half way through an alpine tour by 4pm is mostly a bad idea and sometimes outright dangerous. Our last expedition is a good example of what would have been a perfect Saturday meetup, but we just could not have been there any later on that day. I would love to claim some Saturday meetups on the long road of the centurion achievement, but with 4pm as meetup time this will be a lot harder.

At the moment we seem to be the only active geohashers in our graticule. If there are no objections by our neighbours from the north (most recently Zertrin, Knallgöwer) and from the south (Werther), I will add a section to the Innsbruck graticule page to change the time.

To give an outside opinion: I strongly encourage this change. Roaming the alps after dark is dangerous even during this season, let alone in winter. --Calamus 03:26, 24 June 2013 (EDT)

+1 this makes absolutely sense — Zertrin 04:09, 24 June 2013 (EDT)

I agree, of course! That makes great sense! Looking forward to a trip up north this summer! Werther (talk) 12:36, 24 June 2013 (EDT)
