ShadowHash

Plans

As the hashpoint was on the side of a suburban street, I drove there after work.

Expedition

Piece of pi. Easy as cake. My hash marker (see photos) probably didn't last long - it was very windy, and sellotape doesn't stick to asphalt very well. I think I'll make a better one for next time.

Photos

IRC Peeron generated map of the hashpoint.

Google Maps street view of the hashpoint.

For comparison with Google Maps street view.

My simple Hashmarker.

Achievements

ShadowHash earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (-43, 172) geohash on 2011-04-21.

ShadowHash earned the No Batteries Geohash Achievement

by reaching the (-43, 172) geohash on 2011-04-21.

well, I didn't use GPS, only Googly maps...

ShadowHash has visited an Easy Geohash

by reaching the (-43, 172) geohash on 2011-04-21 without really trying.

sort of - I did have to drive out of my way to get there, but it was just at the side of the road...
