I had heard about geohashing many years ago on xkcd but had never ended up doing it. I recently remembered this activity and decided to give it a try. I downloaded the app on Friday, and due to the three-day weekend for Labor Day, there were four days of geohashes visible. I figured that of these, I was most likely to try this one (Monday's), as it was geographically the closest to me, was in a nature preserve I'd never been to, and was close to a trail.
