2008-05-22: First visit to target coordinates by Spike and crew.
2008-05-24: 40.126648°, -96.547534° A forested area east of Wymore. As the coordinates were so far south of Lincoln, the team embarking from Lincoln successfully reached the West Omaha coordinates instead, a field in the middle of nowhere.

2008-05-31: 40.037487°, -96.281267° A field northeast of Summerfield, KS, close to the southern Nebraska border. Again the coordinates are very far south of Lincoln, so the West Omaha coordinates seem like a more viable option.

2016-06-28: Globalhash at 40.340668°, -96.411929° - A farm field about an hour south of Lincoln, just off of US 136.
