Geohashes Attempted

  • 2009-06-13 48 -123 (Victoria, BC: William Head Institute): thwarted by private property (correctional officers wouldn't let me in for some reason :-)
  • 2009-06-22 48 -123 (Victoria, BC: Cole Bay): thwarted due to time constraints (would have waded 8m into the ocean to get the point otherwise).

Retro Expedition Candidates
