About Me
Home is the Boise area, but for at least the medium term, I'm living near Ogden, UT. Idaho has an excess of virgin graticules. I plan to remedy that (I've deflowered 5 so far). Hope to meet some of you on an expedition eventually To date I've met one other Geohasher in person (with his wife and children). Hope to meet more of you someday. I will attempt to walk/bicycle to hashes when possible. However, the reality of this part of the world is that a large percentage of hashes will involve driving at least part of the way to reach.

A few which have some magnitude or degree of achievement (like Frozen Geohash or Consecutive Geohash) will be listed again any time the new ribbon shows a higher magnitude of achievement (colder, more consecutive hashes, and so on). And a few others (such as Virgin Graticule) will be listed every time they are achieved.
