rabbitfox

This is rabbitfox. She is of the genus Doglefox and named after an old friend rabbitdog, and was the first of her kind in existence in the real world. She has been around the world with me and is now my geohashing mascot.

I've just discovered both geocaching and geohashing in July when looking for GPS applications for my new iPhone. I'm approaching 20 hashes and 100 caches!

Status: Only doing easy/obvious caches and hashes at the moment, as I have sent my iPhone back for service.

upcoming hashes

  • Hashing in London West, United Kingdom (and possibly other parts of the UK) on my trip back between 2009-09-22 and 2009-10-04.
  • Deflowering Lisboa, Portugal (and possibly neighbouring graticules) between 2009-10-04 and 2009-10-10.
  • Various expeditions as the opportunity arises on my roadtrip back through Spain, France, Italy... direction to be decided.

vague plans

Technical/wiki stuff is on my TODO list.
