About
I am a Finnish outdoors person, geocacher and orienteer. I heard about geohashing at about the same time I started geocaching in 2013, but only in April 2019 did I actually get around to creating an account.
Geocaching profile: Kripakko
Home graticule since 2023-01-28: Kempele, Finland (64,25)
Old home graticule until 2023-01-28: Joensuu, Finland (62,29)

My list of graticules and municipalities in the North Karelia region: User:Kripakko/North Karelia
I have created a template for displaying links to National Land Survey of Finland's topographic map: Template:MapSiteLink. Anyone in Finland is free to use it too if they want to.
Same for Sweden: Template:MinKartaLink

Is it true that Kripakko earned the Picnic achievement?
- In principle, yes.
But he did not bring any picnic accessories with him, and while he had tissue paper that did serve as napkins, he failed to photograph them and himself in action (2022-06-13 62 29).
