The Grand Rapids graticule is at latitude 42, longitude -85. It includes much of the Greater Grand Rapids area along with the cities of Kalamazoo and Battle Creek. Since the area is mostly farm land, the majority of meetup coordinates will likely be on private property, and meeting at the nearest public road intersection may be advisable.
Local Geohashers
Dawz: I'm actually from the Muskegon graticule, but more often than not it's far too wet for my tastes. My Saturdays are currently open.
Hakukoru: I'm from Grand Haven, so I may attempt to visit the coordinates for the Grand Rapids area as well, as long as they arent too far south-east. Especially with the current gas prices. Unfortunately I already have plans for this coming Saturday (May 24, 2008), but will check the coordinates for next Saturday and see how it goes.
smq: Live in SE Grand Rapids, work in Lansing. I already have plans for this coming Saturday (May 31), but expect to be free for the next few weeks following.
Thothman: I recently decided to give Geohashing a shot. At least I'll be paying attention, but I've got my next few saturdays booked pretty solidly. Currently reside in the northmost part of Kalamazoo (Almost into Parchment).
here7ic: I'm from the Muskegon graticule. My Saturday's are open until notice. I'd love to meet up with some fellow Geohashers, provide gas prices and distances allow.
Yvh11a: I currently live in Battle Creek, but all my friends live in Kalamazoo, so I'm familiar with both areas. My Saturdays are usually busy but I'll try to make it to at least a couple meetups (or as close as I can estimate without actually owning a GPS)
Recent and Upcoming Meetups
24 May 2008 Apparently no one attempted either the Grand Rapids or Big Rapids Coordinates
31 May 2008 The Grand Rapids coordinates (see the note on the Main Page about problems with the maps) are in what appears to be farmland NNE of Colon and SE of Leonidas. The Big Rapids coordinates are along the Flat River off Whites Bridge Rd. between Lowell and Belding.
