I live in the Victoria, British Columbia graticule. I'm mostly lurking for now, especially since I don't have a GPS, but if a Geohash appears in an accessible location, I just might try for it.

Various links of interest.

Geohashes Attempted

  • 2009-06-13 48 -123 (Victoria, BC: William Head Institute): thwarted by private property (correctional officers wouldn't let me in for some reason :-)

Retro Expedition Candidates

Here's a list of potential retro expeditions to take and why.

Auspicious Dates

  • 1998-09-19 Victoria: Date my wife & I got married (in the same graticule no less).
    • In the bush near Jordan River -- looks doable though.
  • 2008-09-19 Victoria: 10-year anniversary.
    • Right off highway 112 east of Port Angeles in Washington State.
  • 1972-08-02 Victoria: My birthday in my local graticule.
    • Looks fairly accessible out in East Sooke.

Origin Geohash

Some day, I'll have to go for the Origin geohash achievement and get to this location. It actually looks pretty doable. Just got to get myself to the Montreal area first, that's all.

Contrived Dates

Chosen more for the resulting accessible Geohash:
