Today's Location: (47, -117)
The Spokane, WA graticule is at latitude 47, longitude -117. It completely encloses the cities of Spokane, Cheney, Airway Heights, Medical Lake, and Deer Park as well as several towns south of Spokane and just across the Idaho border. Houser and Settlers, and some neighborhoods of Post Falls, Idaho, are west of the 117th meridian line but east of the state line. The graticule is almost entirely land but includes several lakes, rivers, forests, farmlands and mountains, most notably all of Mount Spokane state park.

Participants
- Greenup A Liberty Lake resident who saw a fairly easy one to pick up
- Hobbes I'm going to try and make it to Saturday's meet-up if it is close enough to Spokane. I do not know of any other XKCD fans in the area so for now I'll assume that it will be just me.
- Speedhole I should make it to one eventually...
- Thom Seattle resident and occasional Spokane visitor.
- Sirocco Whitman County resident, barely on the grid but hoping to jump aboard. Would be game for setting up a hard-and fast time to meet up for weekend coordinates, though with some reservation about coords north of I90, thank you $4/gallon.
- XKCD-Anon People actually go to these things? Live in CDA but it seems that page is inactive so I may try to join up with the Spokane ones.
- Nightcrawler - Spokane resident. Meets in Spokane are a bit easier for me to get too, I don't have a GPS, I just have to guess really, really good.
- Stovetop- New to Spokane. My housemates and I are avid XKCD fans; we'll be out one of these weekends.
- Rockwellgump- physics undergrad at WSU in pullman, Wa. my friends are xkcd addicts, and i live in spokane so i imagine that i will someday attend. I cant wait!
- Gwynnywonk- Recent Art grad from Whitworth, still in north Spokane. Spokane or Deer Park meets are obviously more desirable.
- DP-Just started reading xkcd, am definately going to do this soon.
- Cheddar- The one, the only. Lurking in case I can ever make it. :)
- Extraguy I just found this while checking out some old XKCDs. I can't wait to get started!
