[[Category:Meetup in {{{lat}}} {{{lon}}}| ]]
This graticule includes the most southern part of the North Island. It has a greater land percentage than the neighbouring Wellington region making it slightly more suitable for geohashing. The land is also only from one island, eliminating a 3+ hour, $100+ ferry trip.
As for all New Zealand graticules, the Dow Jones does not open for any day until it is 1:30am the next day in New Zealand. Weekend meetups are still possible, however.

GeoHashes

The GeoHash here looks to be about 200m up in the hills behind the prison and golf club in Trentham, possibly a few km from the nearest road. nzsteak is planning an expedition leaving from Wellington in the morning, others are welcome - leave a message on my talk page or I'll be on the IRC channel for a while (especially useful would be a handheld GPS, I don't want to carry a laptop so at the moment it's going to be "old skool" compass triangulation:) .
