The graticule for 57,-2 includes Aberdeen City and the surrounding area.
- The furthest northwest point on land is approximately 10 miles east of Elgin.
- The furthest northeast point on land is Fraserburgh.
- The southwest bound is a few miles ESE of Ballater.
- The furthest southeast point on land is approximately 2 miles north of Stonehaven.
Peterhead is not included in this graticule, but since Peterhead's graticule contains a very small landmass, any people from Peterhead should probably pretend they're from Aberdeen.
Notable Events
2009-04-01: Not an April Fools' joke, the global hash is in this graticule! It's on a hill near Alford, about an hour's drive west of Aberdeen. It does not seem to be on private property.

Future Plans
We'll be geohashing again some time, Damianc's birthday trip on 11 September 2011 was a success.
