This geohash achievement's objective is to visit the geohash location for the day on which you were born, in the graticule in which you were born. For geohashers who remain in their birth area, this achievement should generally fall near another daily location on a semi-frequent basis, and thus be fairly attainable.

Origin Geohash Icon

Template:Origin geohash

Origin2.png
This user earned the Origin geohash achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash for [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

Use this template to post a ribbon on your expedition or user page to show your achievement.

This achievement's objective is to visit the geohash location for the day on which you were born, in the graticule in which you were born (thus it is a special retrohash version of the birthday geohash achievement, unless performed on the actual day of birth). For geohashers who remain in their birth area, this achievement should generally fall near another daily location on a semi-frequent basis, and thus be fairly attainable.

Please keep in mind that, although you can take a ribbon for the successful Origin geohash, unless you are zero days old, it still counts as a retro expedition and thus not as "coordinates reached" (use [[Category:Origin_reached]] instead). Therefore it would not qualify for any other achievements (especially not the Graticule Unlocked achievement).

How to find your Origin geohash

Just in case it's not obvious, you can select any date in the coordinate calculator, press update and it will show the location of the hash for that date. (Well, from 1929 on, at least... if you're older than that you're on your own!)
