Geohashes

2008-09-13 39 -85 -- The 39,-85 graticule's coordinates fell in the northeast suburbs near Fishers

2008-09-06 39 -86 -- North of Indianapolis in the Bridgefield subdivision near 79th and Ditch

2008-08-30 39 -86 -- Near Lake Monroe, 6 miles SW of Bloomington. Kira, Erik, Neeraj and Duncan were there at roughly 4:15pm. Appeared to be technically private property, so we knocked on the nearest house's front door and asked permission before trudging through their "backyard". Much thanks!

2008-06-14 39 -86 -- In the RCA plant's private truck lot. Brett suggested the small field at 39.80772834,-86.03692889, but was not able to make it. Tim was there.

2008-05-23 39 -86 -- North-west of Gosport, in a forest behind a farmer's field. Suso came here on Saturday, but it was on private property. This may be the first one in this graticule to be attempted.

2008-05-24 39 -86 -- In the middle of the golf course at Bloomington Country Club. (2008-05-24 40 -86 is closer to Indy, and not private property!)

2008-05-25 39 -86 -- The first time an Indianapolis geohash is reached, almost: in someone's front yard.

Local Geohashers

Eoban might come Saturday if it's anywhere around Bloomington
Tim might turn up on a Saturday if it's anywhere near Indy

Another Evan might show up on Saturday if it's anywhere near Bloomington, and reachable without using a GPS.

Dan might turn up on a Saturday, schedule and good location permitting.
Suso might show up if its a Saturday or Sunday and close to Bloomington.
Josh might show up if it is in Indy and someone points where the location is.
Anthony might show up if it's near Indy on a Saturday or Sunday.
Erik might show up if it's near Bloomington on a Saturday or some other day if it's actually in Bloomington (and he remembers to check).
Mike might show up unless he gets lost due to the fact that he's using the googlemaps app and not an actual GPS.
