New Jersey intersects with nine graticules.  (Hey, it's not my fault New Jersey is so small.  Blame [[Scranton, Pennsylvania|Pennsylvania]], [[New York, New York|New York]], [[Danbury, Connecticut|Connecticut]], and [[Salisbury, Maryland|Maryland]].)  This page is to track how many of them I've geohashed in and successfully reached.  It's safe to say that [[Cape May, New Jersey|Cape May]] will be the toughest to achieve on land, but I have come close to a water geohash without knowing the hashpoint was there, so it's not impossible.

More interesting is the (39, -73) graticule.  There's no land, but it is within a few hundred meters of the shore.  If I could find a boater in the area, this would complete my Minesweeper.
 +
 
 +
[[Salisbury, Maryland]] was a linked graticule, but since there is no NJ land in that graticule I bumped it from the NJ regional geohash.  Now you know how Pluto feels.

 +
Since I'm travelling out of state this summer, I changed this to a super-regional map.

New Jersey intersects with nine graticules. (Hey, it's not my fault New Jersey is so small. Blame Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, and Maryland.) This page is to track how many of them I've geohashed in and successfully reached. It's safe to say that Cape May will be the toughest to achieve on land, but I have come close to a water geohash without knowing the hashpoint was there, so it's not impossible.

More interesting is the (39, -73) graticule. There's no land, but it is within a few hundred meters of the shore. If I could find a boater in the area, this would complete my Minesweeper.

Salisbury, Maryland was a linked graticule, but since there is no NJ land in that graticule I bumped it from the NJ regional geohash. Now you know how Pluto feels.

Since I'm travelling out of state this summer, I changed this to a super-regional map.
