The beginning of the year continued pretty much like the end of the previous one, with Portland being 4th for expeditions in January.  February and March maintained the activity for the area, but there was more graticule hopping, causing Portland to drop for number of expeditions.  However, in April, activity exploded in the area.  Portland had 9 expeditions, the most in its history in a single month, and McMinnville tied its previous record of 4 expeditions.

Today's location: not yet announced

The Portland graticule is at 45 N, 122 W. It completely encloses the city of Portland and some surrounding areas. The graticule is almost entirely land, much of it open and undeveloped, making this one of the best areas for geohashing.

View of the west hills of Portland, Oregon

Recent Expeditions

The ten most recent expeditions are captured automatically by User:AperfectBot and shown here. A full list of Expeditions can be found at Portland, Oregon/Expeditions. Manual lists from before the bot are available on the archives page.

Expeditions in the nearby McMinnville, Oregon graticule can be found on its own page.

Mailing List

Please subscribe to the mailing list for Portland Geohashing. It can be used to alert participants of interesting or accessible geohash locations who may otherwise not frequent the wiki page or be actively monitoring these on their own.

Meetup time

It was proposed, and no objections were raised, so the official meetup time for our graticule(s) is now 2PM from Oct 1 to March 15, and 4PM for the rest of the year. I'd say this applies to neighboring graticules as well.
