The McMinnville, Tillamook, and Forest Grove area graticule is at 45 N, 123 W. This area contains farmland and a portion of the Coast Range, Tillamook Forest, and descends into the Willamette Valley. Easy access to much of the Tillamook Forest as well as coastal areas to the west and foothills and flatter areas to the east provides opportunity for hiking to geohashing locations when local and/or logging roads do not.
