The Raleigh Graticule

The Raleigh graticule is at latitude 35, longitude -78 and included most of the counties of Wake, Johnston, Franklin, Nash, Durham, and Cumberland counties.

Expeditions

2018-04-13 35 -78 - Pedalpusher - In the woods, off Moore Perkerson Rd by Lake Royale.

2014-09-19 35 -78 - Dave - Our graticule's first expedition in almost 5 years!

2009-11-18 35 -78 - Robyn - In a field between a subdivision and a utility company.

2009-05-21 35 -78 - NCBears - Geohashing Day Achievement alongside I-540 in a field.

2009-04-03 35 -78 - NCBears - Holy hash.

2009-03-07 35 -78 - NCBears - Sunrise geohash in field.

2009-03-06 35 -78 - NCBears - Quick geohash after work.

2009-02-03 35 -78 - NCBears - Quick geohash.

2009-01-31 35 -78 - NCBears - Sunrise geohash. Scary and cold.

2009-01-08 35 -78 - NCBears - Speed Racer Achievement in residential hash.

2008-08-16: Modexec is in Chapel Hill, and the meet-up location for the Raleigh graticule is a little too far east and way too far south. The location for the Greensboro, North Carolina graticule is actually in a nice little park between Mebane and Burlington. Any takers?

2008-06-28 35 -78: WokTiny was there-ish about 4:20pm. Borrowed Magellan got me within a few hundred feet, I ran ahead to get closer without it, found a creekbed, bottle. Took more pictures, maybe available later.

2008-06-10: The location for today's meet is a little far to the east, but the neighboring graticule (Chapel Hill) is doable! Meet there at 4:30, bring games, food, and whatever strikes your fancy. Red spiders optional. (Caroline and her friend are going!)

Geohashers

Dave lives in Durham. He and his wife finally started geohashing in September 2013. Please let Dave know about any promising hashes in the Triangle area!
Team Jevanyn have relatives in Wilmington, so they're in the area about once a year.
NCBears Eisen and Bear
WokTiny did it once.
