So, for the first time in awhile, I have a free Saturday (I think). I definitely would like to make an excursion to wherever the Seattle GeoHash is that day or an alternate. Morethen willing to pick up people and/or carpool. Takers? - [[User:Narfy|Narfy]]

:Addendum - those power wire trails are pretty cleared; a meetup there is not out of the question. The only way I could make a 4:00 time is with my kids, though. Picnic? --[[User:Thomcat|Thomcat]] 13 June
 
 
 
May I suggest those with cars might use the Snoqualmie geohash for Sunday 15 June. It's right off the 436th street exit from I-90, and might be a vacant lot. Hard to tell - satellite coverage is not good. --[[User:Thomcat|Thomcat]] 14:12, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Saturday June 21st Geohash

So, for the first time in awhile, I have a free Saturday (I think). I definitely would like to make an excursion to wherever the Seattle GeoHash is that day or an alternate. Morethen willing to pick up people and/or carpool. Takers? - Narfy

Hope it's near Fremont - then we can take in the Solstice Parade at the same time. --Thomcat

Islands

This sucks. How do we get to those tiny little islands??

Row boat?
What if we instead head east to the next graticule when the point falls in or west of Puget Sound? It's always fun to go up to the mountains. - Cahlroisse
There's mountains to the west as well... Puget sound is basically the eye of a geological hurricane. Everywhere you go, there be mountains. So don't discount the west side trips. - --Nukewaste 22:21, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

We should plan to have one or two outings to the [Mt. Rainier] or [Mt. St. Helens] graticules one Saturday or another when they fall within the parks at an accessible area.--Cahlroisse 05:05, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
