== Notable Accomplishments ==
 +
 +
On August 22nd, 2011 (my second expedition) I managed to hit a [[User:RocketMac/2011-08-22_MultiHash|five stop multihash]] on my way from Milwaukee to Minneapolis.
 +
 +
From June 16th to June 18th, 2012, I hit geohashes on [[User:RocketMac/HashingSpree|three days in a row]] in three different graticules and in three different states.
 +
 +
On [[2012-07-16 36 -115|July 16th, 2012]], I was the first person to visit a hash in [[36,-115|Las Vegas, NV]] while in town to play in the World Series of Poker.
 +
 +
On [[2012-09-23 42 -89|September 23rd, 2012]], I reached a hash in [[42,-89]] completing the [[Minesweeper Geohash]] and [[Déjà_vu_geohash_achievement|Déjà Vu]] achievements.
 +
 +
I celebrated [[2013-05-21 44 -87|Geohashing Day 2013]], with a 5 point [[GeoSquishy]] near a large red rocket in Green Bay, WI.
 +
 +
I was working with a client on [[2017-04-18 41 -88|April 18, 2017]] that was also the junior college I attended in the 90s. I spent a LOT of time less than .1 mi from the hash.

About Me

User-RocketMac.jpg
Lol-asg.png 52 / m / 42,-88

I am a Mac geek (former Apple employee (twice)) and current Apple Certified Trainer/Consultant/Technician) living near Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

I know I'm late to the geohashing game, but I dig it a lot.

My house is less than two miles South/Southwest from the 43, -88 graticule, but I'm originally from Naperville, IL so the 42, -88 suits me just fine.

Geohashing 101 Geocache

I created a Geohashing 101 Geocache cache to introduce my local geocachers to geohashing and these pages contains all the info.

Notable Accomplishments

On August 22nd, 2011 (my second expedition) I managed to hit a five stop multihash on my way from Milwaukee to Minneapolis.

From June 16th to June 18th, 2012, I hit geohashes on three days in a row in three different graticules and in three different states.

On July 16th, 2012, I was the first person to visit a hash in Las Vegas, NV while in town to play in the World Series of Poker.

On September 23rd, 2012, I reached a hash in 42,-89 completing the Minesweeper Geohash and Déjà Vu achievements.

I celebrated Geohashing Day 2013, with a 5 point GeoSquishy near a large red rocket in Green Bay, WI.

I was working with a client on April 18, 2017 that was also the junior college I attended in the 90s. I spent a LOT of time less than .1 mi from the hash.
