This page exists to serve as a database of Geo Hashing achievements that can be attained by putting in a little extra work. To claim these Geohashes, you only need photographic proof.
Contents
Achievements
Land Geohash
The simplest kind of Geohash, making it to a Geohash on land.
Water GeoHash
Whilst not all geohashers have access to a boat, those who do are able to get this Geohash achievement should they live in a Graticule that covers water, which you would assume because they own a boat.
"Mother Nature is my Bitch" GeoHash
Should you have to overcome certain impediments by virture of land, forest or water to reach your location, you can achieve the "Mother Nature is my Bitch" Geohash Achievement. To achieve this Geohash, attemptees must have to have overcome rivers/mountains/cliffs/trees/bears/mountain lions/drop bears or any other kind of wild animal from your country to get to the location on the day.
Achieving this Geohash is inherently only possible to the toughest and most committeed Geohashers.
Couch Potato GeoHash
For those lucky enough to have a days location fall right on their house, therefore not having to move at all to get to the location, this one in a million GeoHashing achievement is yours.
If this does happen, you also have to have 12 hours notice party.
Pub GeoHash
For those over the drinking age, this GeoHash is a pleasant suprise. If a pub exists at the co-ordinates you are sent to, you are required to have a beer and celebrate this achievement. Unless you're driving.
Public Transit GeoHash
This can occur when the co-ordinates in question lie exactly on a public transit route of some sort (subway, bus, monorail, ferry, train, funiculaire, cogwheel railway. This achievement is yours if you are on said mode of transport at the specific time when it passes under/over/across the point in question. This may be an effective way to get the Water GeoHash, too.
"Going Deep" Geohash
This is achieved by actually being underground at the GeoHash site. We hope this occurs in a tunnel or cave, because if you just bury your self to secure this award, you're taking things a bit far.
Party GeoHash
If you make it to a saturday morning Geohash and independently meet other Geohashers, you are able to claim this achievement if you and your new found best friends play some sort of game.
Practically, a quick game of Rock/Paper/Scissors counts, however if you're prepared, you may be able to claim...
Twister GeoHash
Playing Twister at the GeoHash location is an exceptional achievement, and worthy of much respect. Even more impressive should the location also have been worthy of a "Mother Nature is my Bitch" Geohash achievement.
For each Twister achievement, a complimentary container of Crisco can be shipped to your home. After providing photographic proof, simply contact ironiridis and provide your mailing address.
Thumbs Up Geohash
Here, the trick is to hitch hike the way to the geohash as far reasonably possible, preferably of course with as few rides as possible. Extra points if you use an Electronic Thumb.
