about From the small town of Boring, Oregon. Yes that's actually the name of the town. I've found it's a great ice-breaker as well. Currently new to hashing but excited, I've geocached and this scratches that same itch to explore and adventure. I'm studying computer science at Oregon State University. My top three current geohashing goals: Hash on another continent Start a geohashing club at Oregon State University Get the Hobbit achievement preferably in a graticule on an active volcano Status: Active and showing no signs of slowing down statistics Graticules visited.............. 3 - Virgin graticules: 1 Total expeditions 6 - By car: 4 - By public transport: 0 - By public transport + bike: 0 - By bike: 1 - On foot: 1 - By plane 0 - By boat 0 Hashes reached 3 - Countries: 1 - Continents: 1 - Saturday hashes: 3 - reached at 4p.m. (or your regional equivalent): 2 - other time, with meet-up: 0 Hashes not reached 2 - For not trespassing: 1 - For inaccessibility: 0 - For poor planning: 1 - Issues with technology: 0 - For Mother Nature's whims: 0 list of hashes 2013 2013-10-20 44 -123 - First attempt and first failure. 2013-10-21 44 -123 - First success, even with poor time management. 2013-10-26 44 -122 - Fun road trip, picnic on a hill, and lots of pictures. 2013-11-02 44 -123 - A quick success after an hour long drive with dad and Morgan. 2013-11-03 43 -123 - Turned back due to unforeseen private property. 2013-11-09 44 -124 - Brutal hike off the beach and my first virgin graticule.
