The Alternate-Location-Cheat Geohash
Link to the spot on Google Maps
The official spot for today was somewhere out in Jordan, but since I was tired of inaccessible geohash spots, I decided to move the location to a spot on my street. For a while, I considered just putting it in my house, thus winning the Couch Potato Achievement, but that like felt too much cheating. I went there after getting home tonight, and snapped some pictures.
The spot
The cheat
I didn't have a GPS or anything, but you can believe me that it was this spot: [1]. Even if the guy there kinda screwed up the exact location, because he put it on the corner of the street when in fact it's a little bit further down.
So, I guess that counts as a geohash. Sorta. Like, in a very desperate sort of way. Ah well. It's something.
