Plans

4pm saturday meetup. I'll be at my parents house for father's day, and will be attempting a walking geohash from that location. -- Xore 20:21, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

I'll be cycling from Mission using the Albion ferry and the new bridge. My first Geohash with other people. ~40km each way --Fbfree 20:57, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Elbie's plan:

• 13:00 - depart UBC
• 14:20ish - get to Commercial, take SkyTrain
• 15:00 - arrive Surrey Central, bike out to coordinates (take Fraser, then 88).

Is anybody else biking in? Want to meet at Surrey Central? - Elbie 18:48, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Expedition

Elbie

This was a pretty straightforward expedition for me. I left UBC around 12:30, and detoured a few times for errands. I biked out to Commercial SkyTrain station and took the Expo Line out to Surrey. And from there, I biked out to the hashpoint. I arrived around 15:30, apparently getting there first. I located the hashpoint within the accuracy of my GPS and was in the process of making a sign for the hashpoint when I saw Fbfree arriving.
