Local Geohashers

Mark actually lives in the St. Paul SE, Minnesota graticule but, being right on the 44th parallel, finds the rural nature of the Austin, Minnesota graticule to be more reclusively appealing. He doesn't own a GPS though, so really it just worked out best for mooching a friend's GPS on one rare occasion that the hash wasn't a few thousand feet into a field of crops.
