About me
Hello, I'm Alexander and I've occasionally gone looking for Geohashes around where I live, and I having previously sought out Geocaches.
My friend stumbled on to Geohashing as she been reading XKCD and thought it might be fun. I've got the kit so we started our adventures!

(Previously I used the name tansuo but I've changed my email address and lost my password and subsequently mislaid all my login details ...)

Attempted Geohash finds:

  1. 2013-12-21_51_-2 - Pending


Tech used
For the those who want to know the technical details, I use or have used:

  • Garmin nuvi 550
  • Garmin Foretrex 401


Hint for those who have a nuvi 550: On the main screen, press and hold your finger on the satellite-signal-status icon. After a few seconds you should get a display of the satellite constellation, signal strengths and most importantly your location in your preferred grid format.
