About Lucky
Lucky is a total noob with very little math or web editing know how. She just likes the idea of a random adventure generator. She works in one graticule, lives in another, and is close to four others. As soon as she finds a hash she can get to, on a day that she has time, she's doing it. Unfortunately, it does not appear that there are many active geohashers nearby.
Graticules
37,-120, 37,-121, 38,-119, 38,-120, 38,-121, 39,-121,
Equipment
iPhone with geohashing apps, 1991 Jeep XJ.
Planning
Attempted
2012-12-19 38 -120 [[1]] - Dark road with nowhere to pull over. Lots of cars zooming by. Got pretty close, but couldn't get out of the car.
Succeeded
2013-02-23 38 -121 [[2]] This one looks like I can get to it, and it's on (relatively) public property! Probably try for morning, instead of 4pm, though. - Got within feet, but couldn't get the GPS to cooperate. Also, there was a fence. Still fun and interesting! - I'm switching this to Succeeded, due to the fact that my margin of error was about 4 feet, and I'm sure that the hash was right there on the otherside of the fence, or maybe I was standing on it. Either way, I was there, it was there, and I was really, really close.
Not Attempted
2012-11-01 37 -120[[3]] - This one was in a dairy effluent pit. Didn't go near it.
