Going to try for the FVRD? You've got 49, -121 obviously in Harrison Lake, and you've hit -49, -122 a number of times. -49, -120 and -50, -121 might be possible with a lucky Sunday grat. -50, -122 looks nigh impossible though... Which parts of that -49, -120 are FVRD territory, anyway? Anyone got a map? - Wmcduff 02:14, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Hmm. -50, -122 would require somehow getting to Baptise Smith. I wonder how people get there? - Wmcduff 02:18, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

50, -122 has highway 99, Squamish to Lillooet. Not an accessible graticule, but not impossible. Unless there's a different Robyn who geohashes in -50 :-)

The regional districts are so convoluted I haven't quite worked them out yet. I'm scared of those maps. Does the GVRD end with Surrey? I thought it included all the areas in the Surrey graticule where I have hashed. I would have thought the FVRD ended at Hope. Baptiste Smith is accessible via a really crappy road that goes from Pemberton to Tipella. My next goal is the reverse regional in the Victoria graticule.
