I'm a fan of xkcd, and read the [http://xkcd.com/426/ famous(?) geohashing comic] a few years ago, but then forgot about the whole thing. Recently I stumbled on geohashing again on [http://blog.xkcd.com/2012/02/27/geohashing-2/ xkcd blag], and were quite surprised how active community there is around geohashing even today. As I own a GPS device, I thought that maybe I could start geohashing too, it sounded like fun. My excitement was hightened when I noticed that no one had ever visited a geohash in my graticule, so there is even a Virgin Graticule award to be taken right away.

[[File:2015-07-11_63_28_DSC_0476_1500px.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Tilley w/ daughter]] My name is Matti and I'm from Finland. I'm 38 years old and I love outdooring in its various forms. I recently moved Joensuu (62, 29) to Jyväskylä (62, 25).

My hobbies include mountain biking and paddling, and I own a kayak, so reaching also the water hashes won't be a problem. Those will probably be quite common, as we have hundreds of thousands of lakes in Finland.  
+
I started geohashing in 2012 when I read it from the [http://blog.xkcd.com/2012/02/27/geohashing-2/ xkcd blag]. Over the years I've had many fun adventures with geohashing.

In this area, temperatures in mid-winter lie below -20 degrees Celsius for a month or two, the coldest days being -35. Thus the lakes develop a thick ice every winter, so Frozen and Walking on Water achievements will be very easy, but I have to remember to take off my cross-country skis as I reach the hash point!
+
Here's my [[User:Tilley/Map|map]] of visited graticules.
  
−
I will most likely be trying to reach hashes that are within biking/skiing/paddling distance, because although I own a car, I usually don't drive it too much and try to use my bike(s) to do my daily traveling.

== Graticules ==
 +
 
 +
In addition to my home graticule of 62, 25, I have connections to graticules that include [[Helsinki, Finland|Helsinki]], [[Nilsiä, Finland|Valtimo]] and [[Keuruu, Finland|Keuruu]], so on vacations and such I could try to reach hashpoints in those graticules, too.

*1.[[2012-10-04 62 27]] I had to wait mere 3 days from the day I decided I would start geohashing, and the geohash fell only 12,7 km (as the crouch flies) from my couch! This one is definitely easy to reach, as there is a trail marked in the map almost directly on the hash. It's at least a forest trail, or even a road drivable by car. However, I'm going to try to reach it by bike. Although the hash may fall directly in the road, the Speed Racer achievement would not be possible without some sort of a rally car, as the road/trail is most likely very bumpy and narrow and the default speed limit on rural roads is 80 km/h. However, there is a small change that the owner of the private road I'm going to use to get to the hash (using private roads when travelling on foot or by bike is allowed in Finland, and in some cases even by car) will have posted some sort of speed limit to the road! In that case I'll hope it will be 30 km/h, so I have a chance of getting the Speed Racer achievement by bike!

== Expeditions==
+
Over the years, I've tried to be somewhat "eco-friendly" hasher, doing most of my hashtrips by muscle-power and gone to car-hashes only when I can do them by making a small detour when going a longer distance anyway for some reason. Of course I'm nowhere near [[User:ekorren|Ekorren's]] achievements in this matter ("over 100 expeditions without ever using individual motorized transport"), who is my hero when it comes to ecology of this sport.

Tilley w/ daughter

My name is Matti and I'm from Finland. I'm 38 years old and I love outdooring in its various forms. I recently moved Joensuu (62, 29) to Jyväskylä (62, 25).

I started geohashing in 2012 when I read it from the xkcd blag. Over the years I've had many fun adventures with geohashing.

Here's my map of visited graticules.

Highlights from my geohashing career

Graticules

In addition to my home graticule of 62, 25, I have connections to graticules that include Helsinki, Valtimo and Keuruu, so on vacations and such I could try to reach hashpoints in those graticules, too.

Plans

Over the years, I've tried to be somewhat "eco-friendly" hasher, doing most of my hashtrips by muscle-power and gone to car-hashes only when I can do them by making a small detour when going a longer distance anyway for some reason. Of course I'm nowhere near Ekorren's achievements in this matter ("over 100 expeditions without ever using individual motorized transport"), who is my hero when it comes to ecology of this sport.
