Geohashes Visited

The August 12th geohash site, just on the other side of Reddington Pass. I had just discovered my CFI is an XKCD fan and told him about geohashing; he came in with the coordinates and it was on: we were getting that Air Trophy. We flew out to the coordinates and circled above taking pictures with his iPhone (posted soon). Due to the high elevation and overcast layer, we decided against climbing to 10,000 some feet for the Mile High Award.
