The Santa Cruz graticule is at latitude 36, longitude -122. It includes most of the city of Santa Cruz, but seems to be about 99% covered by the Pacific Ocean. Chances are pretty slim, but if we see some coordinates on land, a Saturday meetup might be in order. On days when the spot is off-shore but within 1 mile, Ted suggests that we try to make it, anyway (boats, surfboards, whatever), if it can be done, safely. Our backup graticule is the one for Salinas, California
