A newfound fan of XKCD comics, I was reading Randall's About Me page and came across Geohashing. That led me to do my first one today with my family. On our drive to the Geohash, we almost hit a car, then drove up a narrow mountain road, driving past No Trespassing signs on a narrow road until we came within about 500 meters of the geohash. Someone in a side-by-side drove up, asked what we were doing, we explained, and he went to go talk to another person, who gave us permission to go on his land. I don't know if we got quite close enough to have technically reached the geohash since I was in a rush and they had a gun, but otherwise, it was an eventful hash. I think I'm the only person in Utah to do this right now so...yay!

Expedition

A newfound fan of XKCD comics, I was reading Randall's About Me page and came across Geohashing. That led me to do my first one today with my family. On our drive to the Geohash, we almost hit a car, then drove up a narrow mountain road, driving past No Trespassing signs on a narrow road until we came within about 500 meters of the geohash. Someone in a side-by-side drove up, asked what we were doing, we explained, and he went to go talk to another person, who gave us permission to go on his land. I don't know if we got quite close enough to have technically reached the geohash since I was in a rush and they had a gun, but otherwise, it was an eventful hash. I think I'm the only person in Utah to do this right now so...yay!
