Today's Location: [Sydney, NS]

The Sydney graticule is at latitude 46, longitude -60. Like many of the other graticules in Atlantic Canada, geohash locations will often be over water or far from roads. This is especially true of the northern portion of the graticule, as it includes the Cape Breton Highlands National Park and much of the rest of Northern Cape Breton, the interior of which can only be accessed by logging roads at best. The south-eastern portion of the graticule is much more likely to produce a useful geohash (although the probability is still not high), and includes much of greater Sydney and a portion of the Mira River near Albert Bridge.
