Today's Location: Mansfield (40,-82)

The Mansfield graticule is at (40, -82). The graticule is almost completely rural, created high odds the geohash will be in a nice field somewhere. Also contained are such scenic areas as the Mohican and Alum Creek state parks. Major cities include the northeast portion of Columbus, Ohio (which is split almost exactly at its center into four graticules), Mansfield, Ashland, Bucyrus, and Mt. Vernon.

  • 2011-10-28 40 -82: User:Jschleappi attempted to reach the hash, but it was on private property.

Notable Events

1. Rattail, Sandy, and Butters made the first documented geohash in this graticule on May 23, 2008.

Rattail, Sandy, and Butters earned the Graticule Unlocked Achievement
by being the first to reach any hashpoint in the (40, -82) graticule, here, on 2008-05-23.

2. Rattail and Sammi went to the Saturday meeting geohash but were half an hour late and nobody was there on May 24, 2008.

Local Geohashers

  • Ernest is in school, and sadly no longer resides in this graticule.
  • Delirium might make an effort to go to one or two, seeing as she's at the exact corner of this and another (hereby inactive) graticule.
  • Aaronbeekay will probably tag along with Delirium because he's a sucker for women.
  • Rattail and friends will try to hit the nearby ones when possible, especially the Saturday meets.
  • Chris and Alex may attend hashes close to the Columbus metro area.
