Plans

To explore strange new places; to seek out new games and new achievements; to boldly go where no hasher has gone before... and be the first graticule to get the Migration Geohash (come on, fifty isn't that much! And more than 26 should be even easier...)

Planning will begin on the IRC channel and on this page at 15:30 local time on Friday 28th. We plan to visit the hashpoint no matter where it lands, which may involve taking trains or renting minivans. A back-up plan is proposed in case the hashpoint is inaccessible: please comment on the talk page.

For those travelling from further afield, travel planning is on the talk page.
