This page is not linked to the main content of the wiki and should not be used as the standard page for achievements.

The following is a list of current achievements re-written to match a hypothetical standardised formatting. I am open to comments on the current formats, which can be left on the discussion page. I am not currently expecting any of these versions to be implemented, but if there is enough support for them, then I'd imagine they could be at some point. This page will be updated periodically to add new achievements. You can use the Contents section to navigate to already rewritten achievements, or you can scroll through to view them.

Land geohash achievement

Landgeohash.png

Template:Land geohash

Landgeohash.png
This user earned the Land geohash achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Land geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash positioned on land. This achievement is the oldest and most basic of the achievements, but is still highly unattainable to those who live on small islands in the middle of the ocean. Whilst it is perhaps the most easily attainable, it is usually a geohasher's first achievement and is something to be proud of earning.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. No additional proof is required for this achievement, as most expeditions are assumed to take place on land unless stated otherwise.

Bicycle geohash achievement

Bikegeohash.png

Template:Bicycle geohash

Bikegeohash.png
This user earned the Bicycle geohash achievement
by cycling to the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Bicycle geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash by bike. The usage of a car, public transport[1], or any other vehicle which is not entirely powered by yourself is not allowed. Unicycles, monocycles, tricycles, and scooters may also earn you this achievement, as may skateboards and longboards. Anything goes, as long as your transport is not electrically powered. You may also wish to consider if the Skate geohash achievement applies to your expedition.

If your expedition begins and ends at the same point and your expedition route never crosses or touches itself, you may have also earned the Tron achievement; your bicycle has become a Light Cycle!

  1. The decision to exclude public transport is one that many geohashers disagree with, as some users have travelled long distances via bike, but due to a short journey via train at the start/end, have not been valid for the achievement. Due to this, some users will still claim this achievement when taking public transport, but will exclude this from any measures of total distance travelled, as can be seen in the list of winners below.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide a photograph or track log of your route, demonstrating that it took place via bicycle.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Bicycle geohash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Bicycle geohash achievement.

Only the expedition with the longest total distance should be listed for each user, resulting in each user having only one listing. The list should also be sorted in descending order of total distance cycled. Feel free to add expeditions shorter than your longest total distance to the Bicycle geohashes page.

Entries marked with a * involved public transport, which has not been included in the total claimed distance.

Template:Public transport geohash

Bus.PNG
This user earned the Public transport geohash achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] using public transit.

The Public transport geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash by bus, train, subway, or other mass transit. Using any motorised individual transport - such as a car, taxi, or motorbike - invalidates this achievement. You do not have to reach the geohash whilst onboard your choice of public transport, but it must be involved at some point in your expedition. You may also be eligible for the Water geohash achievement if you reach the geohash whilst you are on a ferry or other maritime transport.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide a photograph of the mode of public transport you used in your expedition, or a photograph of any tickets you may have purchased.

Winners

Graticule unlocked achievement

Graticule unlocked.png

Template:Graticule unlocked

Graticule unlocked.png
This user earned the Graticule Unlocked Achievement
by being the first to reach any hashpoint in the [[{{{latitude}}},{{{longitude}}}|({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}})]] graticule, here, on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Graticule unlocked achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash, and are the first to do so in that graticule. Not to be confused with the Earliest geohasher achievement, the Graticule unlocked achievement can only be claimed by the first ever to reach a geohash in each graticule. As such, this achievement is only available once per graticule, and will become more difficult to achieve as time goes on. 'Achievement completionists' coming late to geohashing will potentially have to consider venturing to Antarctic or oceanic graticules.

Until 2024, the Graticule unlocked achievement was called the 'Virgin graticule achievement', and references to this name may still be found in expedition reports across the wiki.

Who's on First?

The achievement can only be claimed by the first person to reach a geohash in a graticule with the knowledge of it being the geohash for that day. If you happened to have been at a past geohash without knowing at the time, you cannot claim this achievement (but if you revisit this place, you may be eligible for the Déjà vu geohash achievement). Every person who is part of the first group to reach the geohash, or who arrives whilst the first group is still present, may claim this achievement. The geohasher(s) should document their success on the wiki, and should add a reference to their expedition to the graticule page itself.

In addition to this, it would benefit the wiki as a whole if the geohasher(s) edited the graticule page to add some information, potentially including a photograph representative of the general area. Even if your attempt at this achievement is unsuccessful, your additions to the graticule page will be greatly appreciated.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. No additional proof is required for this achievement, as it is easy to check via the wiki whether the expedition was the first within its graticule or not.

Template:Consecutive geohash 4 - Displays the number of geohashes attempted, coordinates reached and consecutive days.

Consecutivegeohash.jpg
This user earned the Consecutive geohash achievement
by attempting {{{expeditioncount}}} hash points on {{{daycount}}} consecutive days and reaching {{{hashcount}}} of them, starting on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Consecutive geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach at least one geohash for multiple consecutive days. You should only claim this achievement when you improve your personal best for the number of consecutive days. As this achievement requires you to reach geohashes on multiple days, you must have a minimum of two successful expeditions. There are four ribbon variants, all of which can be seen above, and all of which display different measures. Retrohashes do not count towards your consecutive streak.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Since you are also required to achieve multiple consecutive days, you should ensure that all expeditions within this period have the appropriate proof.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Consecutive geohash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Consecutive geohash achievement. You are awarded one 'hash-mark' (#) for each consecutive day that you reach a geohash. Reaching multiple geohashes in a single day does not give you any extra 'hash-marks', but it will qualify you for the Multihash achievement.

Minesweeper geohash achievement

This user achieved level {{{ranknumber}}} of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement
by visiting coordinates in [[{{{graticule}}}]] and {{{ranknumber}}} of the surrounding graticules.
Claremont, NH Concord, NH Portland, ME
Springfield, MA Example Lynn, MA
Hartford, CT Providence, RI Cape Cod, MA

The Minesweeper geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash in any one graticule and in any of the eight graticules that surround it. A complete Minesweeper geohash achievement involves successfully reaching a geohash in all eight of the surrounding graticules.

The eight surrounding graticules could also be referred to as the graticules directly north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, and northwest of the central graticule, such as they would appear on the map on a graticule's page (the Boston graticule is shown on this page as an example). The central graticule does not have to be your home graticule, but can be any graticule of your choosing. The geohashes that are a part of your Minesweeper do not have to be achieved in any particular order or within any specific time period.

It is important to note that there are no 'free squares' within the 3-by-3 grid, all graticules must have at least one geohash reached in order to complete the achievement. Whilst it is perfectly acceptable to geohash in a graticule consisting primarily or entirely of ocean, it is suggested that you choose a central graticule which will avoid the requirement of an ocean-going vessel to complete your Minesweeper.

You may also be interested in the N-in-a-row achievement, which is earned by successfully reaching a geohash in multiple graticules in a row. A completed Minesweeper geohash achievement will have earned this achievement a minimum of eight times.

Ranks

Due to the nature of certain areas, this can be an incredibly challenging achievement to fully complete. In order to give relief and encouragement to those who have not yet completed the full achievement, there are a series of ranks with corresponding ribbons to allow for the progress towards completing the Minesweeper to be demonstrated.

  • Level 1 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any one of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 2 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any two of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 3 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any three of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 4 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any four of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 5 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any five of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 6 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any six of its adjacent graticules.
  • Level 7 - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus any seven of its adjacent graticules.
  • Minesweeper - Reach a geohash in any graticule, plus all eight of its adjacent graticules.

After successfully completing the Minesweeper geohash achievement, some users have went on to reach a geohash in every graticule adjacent to the nine needed for their original Minesweeper, effectively creating a 5-by-5 grid of geohashed graticules, or a 'Super-Minesweeper'. This is a very difficult additional ranking for this achievement, and earning this deserves a large amount of respect and recognition.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Since you are also required to achieve a success in the surrounding graticules, you should ensure that all of the expeditions within this region have the appropriate proof.

Template:Drag-along

Drag-along.png
This user earned the Drag-along achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Drag-along achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash with a friend/acquaintance who is not a geohasher themselves. The person you bring to the geohash must attend of their own free will, but they are not required to know what the purpose of your expedition is. If you send someone to a geohash but do not personally attend it, you do not qualify for this achievement, but you may be interested in the Puppet master geohash achievement.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also provide a photograph or some other kind of proof showing that you brought someone to the geohash with you.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Drag-along achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Drag-along achievement.

Multihash achievement

Multihash.png

Template:Multihash

Multihash.png
This user earned the Multihash Achievement
by reaching the [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude1}}} {{{longitude1}}}]] and [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude2}}} {{{longitude2}}}]] geohashes on [[{{{date}}}]].

Template:Multihash2

Multihash.png
This user earned the Multihash Achievement
by reaching {{{count}}} hash points on [[{{{date}}}]]. It's Hash.

The Multihash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach multiple geohashes in one day. The geohashes may not be retrohashes, as they must all share the same common date.

Earning this achievement could require geohashers to travel more than 150 miles in one day, or it could require next to no travel at all, depending on your location. For those only a few degrees from the equator, this achievement will prove quite difficult, as their graticules are larger in size. Conversely, those very close to the North or South Pole will find the achievement very easy, with the possibility of claiming 360 geohashes in a very short period of time. It is worth noting that both the equator and the Prime Meridian act as 'mirrors' for the geohash points, allowing for the possibility of two sharing an edge, and often resulting in two geohashes being less than a graticule's width/height away from each other.

If you visit multiple different geohashes at the same local time, often accomplished by travelling across timezones, you may qualify for the Time-traveller achievement. If you visit at least one geohash for multiple days in a row, you may qualify for the Consecutive geohash achievement.

Ranks

Template:Multihash2 allows users to input more than two geohashes as part of their Multihash expeditions, and will change the text of the ribbon accordingly. The terminology often used to describe Multihash expeditions, and thus, the rankings of the Multihash achievement, are as follows:

  • Double Hash - Visit two geohashes on the same day.
  • Triple Hash - Visit three geohashes on the same day.
  • Ultra Hash - Visit four geohashes on the same day.
  • MONSTER Hash - Visit five or more geohashes on the same day.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Since you are required to successfully reach multiple geohashes, you should ensure that all expeditions within your Multihash have the appropriate proof.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Multihash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Multihash achievement.

Walk geohash achievement

Walk.PNG

Template:Walk geohash

Walk.PNG
This user earned the Walk geohash Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] on foot.

The Walk geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash completely on foot. You must begin your expedition from a place that is significant to you, and you must perform the entirety of your expedition by walking, jogging, or running. The usage of crutches or manual wheelchairs is also allowed. You may use any means of transportation to return from the geohash, so long as the journey there is entirely on foot.

It is considered not valid to stay overnight at a friend's house or to drive to and work at a satellite office with the sole intention of starting closer to the geohash itself, but if this happens to be the situation you find yourself in when attempting this achievement, you are still eligible to claim it. As with most achievements, there is an honour system in place, and it is expected that you will follow the restrictions of the achievement as best as you can. It is also considered to be not valid if you drive to the base of a mountain and then walk to the summit, even if you have to walk a significant distance to do so.

What counts?

Running, climbing, scrambling, crawling, and taking turns giving piggybacks are all considered to be types of walking, and swimming across a body of water does not invalidate your Walk attempt. You cannot cycle, skateboard, kayak, take public transport, or accept a lift from anyone other than as a piggyback from a walking person. Snowshoeing or sliding down a snow-covered slope on an improvised sled does not invalidate your attempt, but you may not take both the Walk geohash achievement and the MacGyver achievement - either it was a vehicle, or it wasn't. Travelling partially or wholly by crutches or manual wheelchair does still qualify you for this achievement, even if someone pushes your wheelchair for part of the journey. If you were to drive to the home of another geohasher and then both walk from there, only the person whose house you started at earns the Walk geohash achievement, even though all participants walked the same distance.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also provide a photograph or track log of your route, demonstrating that it took place on foot.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Walk geohash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Walk geohash achievement.

Only the expedition with the longest total distance should be listed for each user, resulting in each user having only one listing. The list should also be sorted in descending order of total distance walked. Feel free to add expeditions shorter than your longest total distance to the Walk geohashes page.

Two to the N achievement

TwoToN.png

Template:Two to the N achievement

TwoToN.png
This user earned the Two to the N achievement
by attempting to reach 2{{{count}}} hashpoints on [[{{{date}}} ]] and is promoted to Level {{{count}}} (Expeditions).

The Two to the N achievement can be claimed when you reach your 2nth expedition or coordinates reached, either in general, in terms of global geohashes, or in terms or retro geohashes. This achievement can also be apllied to individual graticules, with the wording of the ribbon changing when applicable.

There are many different versions of the achievement ribbon, as listed below:

  • Expeditions
  • Coordinates Reached
  • Global Expeditions
  • Global Coordinates Reached
  • Retro Expeditions
  • Retro Coordinates Reached

Levels

The Two to the N achievement naturally has an in-built levelling system which aligns with the counting of N. The counting, and therefore levelling system, works as follows:

  • 20 - 1, claim this for the first occurance of whatever you're tracking.
  • 21 - 2, claim this for the second occurance.
  • 22 - 4.
  • 23 - 8.
  • 29 - 512, only 4 people have reached this number for their total expedition count! (2024-07-30)

When first tracking this achievement, geohashers will find the gap between unlocks to be rather short and simple. The difficulty of this achievement increases exponentially as N gets higher. If you wish to claim this achievement for when you reach the 100th occurance, you can input N as 6.64385, or you could use a Gratuitous ribbon achievement.

Proof

Where reaching the coordinates is required for your count, standard proof should be provided. As this achievement typically takes place over multiple expeditions, you should ensure that all expeditions within your Two to the N have the appropriate proof, if required.

Winners

Due to the nature of this achievement, displaying all of those who have claimed it on this page would take up an excessive amount of space. Instead, for a rough estimate of total counts (from which the Two to the N value can be inferred), see Most active Geohashers or other similar pages. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Two to the N achievement.

Frozen geohash achievement

Template:Frozen geohash

Frozen.png
This user earned the Frozen Geohash Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] while the temperature was below the freezing point of water.
Frozen.png

The Frozen geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash at which the ambient temperature is below the freezing point of water (0°C/32°F). The geohash must be within close proximity to water in a frozen state. You may bring your own water and wait for it to freeze to meet this requirement. The temperature does not need to be below freezing for the entirety of your time at the geohash, but it must be below freezing when you measure it.

The recorded temperature must be that of the surroundings themselves. Taking the temperature of a portable cooler, ice pack, liquid nitrogen dewer, or any similar source of cold temperature is not a valid method for gaining this achievement. If the geohash happens to be positioned within a walk-in freezer which you are able to access, you may claim this achievement.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should provide a photograph of water in a frozen state at the geohash. You should also provide a photograph of a thermometer showing a sub-freezing temperature or other persuasive evidence (such as frozen beards or eyelashes). The presence of snow or ice at the geohash is generally considered not to be sufficient proof for this achievement as these elements can remain in above-freezing temperatures.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Frozen geohash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Frozen geohash achievement.

xkcd centurion achievement

Centurion.png

Template:xkcd centurion

Centurion.png
This user earned the xkcd Centurion achievement
by attending {{{count}}} Saturday meetups.

The xkcd centurion achievement can be claimed in its entirety when you attend 100 Saturday meetups. There are several intermediate steps available via the achievement ribbon to allow users to document their progress.

The definition of what counts as a Saturday meetup changes between individual geohashers. As such, the following definitions are all considered valid ways to earn this achievement:

  • You successfully reach the Saturday geohash and are present at the designated meetup time. You do not need to meet another geohasher for this to be valid. The standard designated meetup time is 4pm, but some graticules have shifted their meetup times to align with regional conflicts such as daylight hours. This achievement recognises both of these options as valid.
  • You meet at least one other person who is attempting to reach the geohash and is travelling independently to you. Neither of you need to actually reach the geohash for this to be valid.

Levels

This achievement is split into 10 steps preceding the final xkcd centurion achievement. These steps allow geohashers to track their progress as well as encourage them to continue to strive for the complete achievement. Each step is named as follows:

  • 0-9 - Nullaturion
  • 10-19 - Decurion
  • 20-29 - Viginturion
  • 30-39 - Triginturion
  • 40-49 - Quadraginturion
  • 50-59 - Quinquaginturion
  • 60-69 - Sextaginturion
  • 70-79 - Septaginturion
  • 80-89 - Octaginturion
  • 90-99 - Nonaginturion

Proof

Where reaching the coordinates is required for your count, standard proof should be provided. In all cases, you must provide some kind of evidence to prove that you met the requirements for the achievement. Whether that proof is a photograph with another geohasher or a screenshot of you at the geohash at the designated meetup time depends on the nature of your claim.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the xkcd centurion achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:xkcd centurion achievement. The below list is separated into each different level of the achievement from most to least Saturday meetups attended.

Midnight geohash achievement

Midnightgeohash.png

Template:Midnight geohash

The Midnight geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash at exactly midnight. Due to when the coordinates are announced in certain areas of the world, this can be either 00:00 (the beginning of the day) or 24:00 (the end of the day). If possible, the former of the two is preferred, as 24:00 is actually just 00:00 the following day. You will be met with extra respect should your expedition be completed without the use of a light source.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also provide a screenshot or photograph demonstrating that the time is midnight while you are at the geohash.

Winners

Last man standing achievement

Lastmanstanding.png

Template:Last man standing

Lastmanstanding.png
This user earned the Last man/woman/person standing achievement
by being the the only hasher world-wide to go on a geohashing expedition on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Last man standing achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash, and are the only person to report attempting to do so on that date. This achievement is not for being the only person to attempt a specific geohash, but is rather for being the only person in the entire world to attempt a geohash that day. If others attempt but fail to reach a geohash on the same day as you, you are not the only person to attempt a geohash, and are therefore not eligible for this achievement. You must both successfully reach a geohash and be the only person in the world to attempt any geohash on that day.

Multihashes are valid for this achievement, assuming you are the only person to take part in all of the expeditions. If others reach the same geohash as you, with or without you present, you are not eligible for this achievement. This includes drag-alongs, as you would not have been the only person to attempt a geohash on that day if you brought someone with you.

Checking validity

To find out how many people attempted a geohash on a given day, you can head to the appropriate Category:Meetup on YYYY-MM-DD page. If you use Template:Graticule on your expedition report, a link to this page will be displayed at the bottom of your report. An example of this would be Category:Meetup on 2024-02-21, in which only one expedition took place, earning that geohasher the Last man standing achievement. Conversely, Category:Meetup on 2024-03-30 lists five expedition reports, meaning nobody earned this achievement on that day. It is considered standard practice to wait a week or so before claiming this achievement due to some expedition reports not being published on the day they took place. It is also possible that a report can be created after you have already claimed this achievement, which would then invalidate your prior claim.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. No additional proof is required for this achievement, as it is easy to check via the wiki if the expedition was the only one to take place on that day.

Winners

Speed racer achievement

Template:Speed racer

Speedracer.png
This user earned the Speed racer achievement
by passing through the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] at the maximum legal speed.
Speedracer.png

The Speed racer achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash by driving through it at the maximum legal speed. Typically, this requires the geohash to be located on a drivable road. You should ensure that you only attempt this achievement when it is safe to do so. You may be eligible for this achievement in any type of vehicle, so long as it is able to reach the maximum legal speed limit.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, a photograph of yourself alongside your vehicle near to the location paired with a convincing story is usually enough to be eligible for this achievement. You may be able to provide more concrete proof if one of your passengers takes a photograph of your speedometer, but it is strongly advised for a geohasher not to take such a photo while they are driving the vehicle.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Speed racer achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Speed racer achievement.

Tron achievement

Lightcycle.png
An example of a Light Cycle

Template:Tron

Lightcycle.png
This user earned the Tron achievement
by reaching and returning from the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash without crossing {{{possessive}}} [{{{tracklog}}} own tracks] on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Tron achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash and return to your original starting point without crossing your own track. The name is a reference to the film franchise 'Tron', which features Light Cycles, a type of vehicle resembling motorcycles. These Light Cycles leave a constant trail behind them, represented by a glowing wall of light. The aim of the game in which these vehicles feature is to avoid crashing into these walls for as long as possible, resulting in players being unable to cross over their own trail, similar to that of Snake.

In terms of the Tron achievement, your GPS track log acts as your wall trail and your vehicle of choice acts as your Light Cycle. To be eligible for this achievement, you must travel from your starting point to the geohash and back again without crossing any previous part of your path or using the same segment of road twice. If you are able to travel along opposite lanes of the same road that are distinct enough on the GPS track, you are allowed to do so Small errors such as that of GPS jitter or small overlaps entering and leaving your starting point are acceptable, but you should not pass over your own trail in any significant way. You must begin and end your expedition at the same place, resulting in a track log resembling an almost completely closed curve.

The restrictions imposed by the Tron achievement will have a number of effects on how you carry out your expedition. Some of these include the following:

  • Being unable to go over the same footbridge both on the way to the geohash and back.
  • Being unable to go into any dead-end streets and back out again, even accidentally.
  • Being unable to use a bridge to cross over a road you have previously travelled along, as this will create a loop in the route as viewed from above.
  • Having to pass through the geohash instead of reaching it and turning back around.
  • Having to approach your starting point from the other end of the road.

Unlike the game Light Cycles feature in, you may pause your route to take minimal linear side trips (such as walking into a store or restaurant on a longer expedition, or changing your positioning to get better pictures) as long as these are explained within the report. However, it is strongly preferred that your track log contains no overlapping sections whatsoever.

Proof

An example of a valid Tron route

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide a photograph or track log of your route, demonstrating that it did not intersect at any point. For privacy, it is recommended to cut off the route within the immediate vicinity of your home, but requested to leave the beginning and end of your street on the track log. If you do not have access to a GPS device, it is acceptable to use a detailed and plausible representation of your route, which can be hand-drawn or plotted on a mapping tool.

OpenStreetMap achievement

Osm.png

Template:OpenStreetMap achievement

Osm.png
This user earned the OpenStreetMap achievement
by contributing to OpenStreetMap based on their expedition to the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].


The OpenStreetMap achievement can be claimed when you contribute one or more new geographical features to OpenStreetMap. You do not need to reach the geohash to be eligible for this achievement, and in some cases the reason you were prevented from reaching the geohash may be due to missing features on OSM (such as a cliff face, which may earn you the Done with Nature consolation prize). Previously, this achievement required the feature(s) to be - at least partially - within view of the geohash. This requirement has since been opposed by several people, and is now often not considered to be a strict requirement. Instead, geohashers are now required to have been at the feature(s) they are contributing to ensure that there is still a link with the expedition itself.

Proof

As you are required to have been at the feature(s) you contribute to OpenStreetMap, you must provide either a track log or photograph demonstrating this. Your report should include a description of the feature(s) as well as a link to the OpenStreetMap contribution.

No batteries geohash achievement

Compass.jpg

Template:No batteries geohash

Compass.jpg
This user earned the No Batteries Geohash Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The No batteries geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash using only non-electronic means. You may use an electronic device to research the geohash and the surrounding location, and the usage of a phone or digital camera is allowed for documentation of the expedition, but the expedition itself must not use any equipment such as GPS devices. The usage of car batteries is permitted, as is the case for those in watches, media players, and other non-GPS related devices, but you may not use an in-car satnav during your expedition to the geohash. The restrictions of this achievement are no longer in place during your return from the geohash.

Recording a track log of your position is considered valid within the criteria of the achievement, but you must not view your location on your tracking device during your expedition. Verifying your success at the geohash using a GPS device is allowed, but if you are not in the correct position when you check this, you have not earned this achievement. Once you check a GPS device or other similar device, you have finished your attempt, and any further repositioning to reach the geohash invalidates your No batteries geohash achievement.

When the geohash is located in an urban area or other distinctive place, it is often enough to print off an aerial view of the area and match this to your location. In more rural areas, it may be necessary to use more traditional methods of finding the exact location (such as a tape measure, compass, or sextant). It may also be possible to reach the geohash by memorising the location, depending on how much your trust yourself to do so accurately.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. It is hard to prove the non-existance of something, but a photograph of your alternative means of finding the geohash (or a meaningful story) should be enough to meet the requirements. As with most achievements, there is an honour system in place, and it is expected that you will follow the restrictions of the achievement as best as you can.

Thumbs up geohash achievement

Thumbsup.png

Template:Thumbs Up

Thumbsup.png
This user earned the Thumbs Up Geohash Achievement
by hitchhiking to the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]], and withstanding the Vogon poetry of the driver.

The Thumbs up geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash by hitchhiking for 50% or more of the journey there. You are not eligible for this achievement if the person driving you is someone you already know. It is also required for this achievement that the hitchhiking takes place on the journey to the geohash, not on the way back.

If the driver decides to accompany you to the geohash, you may be eligible for the Drag-along achievement. Always check if hitchhiking is legal in your local area as laws can vary even within the same country. If you are new to hitchhiking, this helpful guide can be used for tips and suggestions on how to get a ride and how to stay safe when doing so.

If you hitchhike during your expedition, but it does not meet the requirements of this achievement (less than 50% of the journey, only on the return journey), you may be eligible for the honorable mention ribbon instead. This can be claimed via the ribbon template linked above.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You may also provide a photograph of you with the hitchhiker or of you in their vehicle if they allow these, but a meaningful story is often enough proof for this achievement. As with most achievements, there is an honour system in place, and it is expected that you will follow the restrictions of the achievement as best as you can.

Meet-up achievement

Meetup.PNG

Template:Meet-up

Meetup.PNG
This user earned the Meet-up achievement
by meeting a complete stranger at the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].
Meetup graph.png

The Meet-up achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash and meet someone who you have never met before. It is typically considered valid to have spoken to this person online or via the wiki before your meet-up, as long as you have never met in person. This achievement was initially created to celebrate the social aspect of geohashing and the original intentions of the geohashing algorithm.

It is up to you to determine what amount of interaction results in "meeting" someone, but you should at least learn their name and engage in some kind of conversation. If the person you meet at the geohash is not a geohasher, you may still be eligible for this achievement, as long as your meeting goes beyond simple pleasantries and the "what are you doing here?" conversation.

If you go on to invite the stranger into your home, you may also be eligible for the Abduction achievement. If the person you meet happens to have a user page on the wiki, you should also add your encounter to the Meetup Graph page, which will add your new connection to the graph (see right). Once you have met 5 or more geohashers, you may also be eligible for the Handshake achievement.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide a photograph containing everyone involved in the meet-up. If the group is too large for one photograph, you may use several, but you must feature in all of them to be able to claim all of the meet-ups.

Template:Easy geohash

EasyAsPi.PNG
This user has visited an Easy Geohash
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] without really trying.

The Easy geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash that required little or no effort. There is no objective measurement of how easy one geohash is compared to another, so you should claim this achievement whenever you judge your expedition to have been easy by your standards. The ribbon icon is a reference to the idiom "as easy as pie".

Some examples of 'easy' geohashes may include:

  • Close to your home or office
  • On public transport routes
  • Where you were going that day anyway

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Due to its subjective nature, a meaningful story explaining how the geohash was easy by your standards is enough proof for this achievement.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Easy geohash achievement and added themselves below. For a complete list of pages containing this achievement ribbon, see Category:Easy geohash achievement.

This user earned the GeoTrash Geohash Achievement
by cleaning up the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Geotrash achievement can be claimed when you pick up trash (or litter/rubbish/garbage) during your expedition. You do not need to reach the geohash to be eligible for this achievement. It is recommended to bring your own bag with you if you plan to attempt this achievement, but you will often be able to find one discarded somewhere for you to use.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to pick up and throw away some trash, you should provide photographs of you doing so.

Hash collision achievement

Hashcollision.png

Template:Hash collision

Hashcollision.png
This user earned the Hash collision achievement
by discovering a geocache near the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Hash collision achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash and find a geocache on or around the site of the geohash. To be considered as 'on or around the site of the geohash', the geocache must be visible while you are at the geohash. Placing your own geocache at the site does not count (unless this was done before the geohash had been announced), but doing this may help other geohashers to earn this award later in the day. An honorable mention ribbon is available for those who find a geocache nearby to the geohash, but outside of the line of sight.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also photograph the contents of the geocache to prove that you found it. Your report may contain a link to the geocache listing, but this can also be done through the ribbon template.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Hash collision achievement and added themselves below. The list contains honorable mentions for nearby geocaches, and these are sorted by distance from the geohash.

Drownedrat2.png
This user earned the Drowned Rat Geohash Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] despite being thoroughly wet.

The Drowned rat geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash despite being thoroughly wet. Walking or cycling through heavy rain may earn you this achievement, as may traversing a deep swamp or bushwhacking through water-saturated vegetation. If an exclamation of "you look like a drowned rat" would be applicable to you, you are likely eligible for this achievement. An honorable mention ribbon is also available to those who only reach the state of being partially wet and cannot quite claim to be a Drowned Rat.

It is not considered to be valid if you became drenched after a water pistol fight or after jumping into a lake to cool off as you would have opted in to these activities. Driving through torrential rain in a closed-off vehicle is also unlikely to make you eligible for this achievement, but you may earn it if you have to kneel in mud to change a tire or are swept off of the road by floodwater.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide a photograph of yourself looking completely soaked. If earning this achievement caused your camera equipment to become damaged or destroyed, as may be the case with an overturned canoe, a meaningful story should suffice.

Winners

The following is a list of geohashers who have claimed the Drowned rat geohash achievement and added themselves below. The list contains honorable mentions for those who only got partially wet.

Dejavu.png
This user earned the Déjà Vu Geohash Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]], and previously on {{{olddate}}}.

The Déjà vu geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash on a site which you have been to in the past. Your previous visit to the site must have happened before the location of the geohash had been announced. You must revisit the site while it is a geohash in order to claim this achievement.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also provide some kind of proof that you were at the site of the geohash in the past, usually in the form of a photograph if one exists. It should be obvious that the photograph was taken on a different date to that of the expedition, usually from development of the site, a difference in season, or the metadata of the photograph.

This user earned the Border geohash achievement
by crossing an international border on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]] to reach the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash.


The Border geohash achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash after crossing an international border. A border is the dividing line between any two areas that are generally recognised as distinct countries, but this recognition does not need to be universal, nor does the border have to have passport control or any other official presence.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Ideally, you should also provide a photograph of the border crossing. Where this is not permitted by law, photographs of road signs or other distinctive features on either side of the border would be acceptable.

Winners

by celebrating in the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) graticule on [[{{{coorddate}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}| May 21st {{{year}}}]].
Escape.PNG
This user earned the {{{year}}} Mouse Over Day achievement
by celebrating in the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) graticule on [[{{{coorddate}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|the Saturday following May 21st {{{year}}}]].

The Geohashing Day achievement can be claimed when you go on an expedition on either the 21st of May (Geohashing Day) or the following Saturday (Mouse Over Day). You do not need to reach the geohash to be eligible for this achievement. Anybody who embarks on an expedition on either of these dates is eligible for this achievement.

The Algorithm used in geohashing, as shown in xkcd 426, was first published on the 21st of May, 2008. This has resulted in this date being referred to as 'Geohashing Day', and is a cause for celebration. For those who cannot geohash on weekdays, an expedition on the following Saturday - Mouse Over Day - is worth just as much recognition.

How to celebrate

Year Geohashing Mouse Over
2024 Tuesday May 25
2025 Wednesday May 24
2026 Thursday May 23
2027 Friday May 22
2028 Sunday May 27
2029 Monday May 26
2030 Tuesday May 25
2031 Wednesday May 24
2032 Friday May 22
2033 Saturday -

The best way to celebrate Geohashing Day is to go geohashing, even if you don't reach the geohash itself. Often, the restriction of going on a specific day results in geohashers going on expeditions they wouldn't usually attempt, thus having a unique adventure. It is strongly preferred that you attempt the geohash for that year, but with the acknowledgement that many graticules will have inaccessible geohashes, you may also earn this achievement by performing a retrohash expedition to a previous 21st of May geohash. If you choose to do this and you are east of longitude -30, bear in mind that the 30W Time Zone Rule was not in place for the 21st of May 2008 and earlier.

It is also recommended to bring cake with you to the geohash, especially if you are able to transport it fully intact. Sharing cake at the geohash is a good way to meet new people, and it may allow you to introduce geohashing to others who just happened to be nearby; the sort of people who will blindly accept cake from strangers tend to align strongly with the sort of people who enjoy geohashing. Occasionally, Mouse Over Day will fall on the 25th of May, which is also Towel Day. This happens when Geohashing Day takes place on a Tuesday, and will take place at an average of every seven years. The next occurrance of 'Towel Mouse Over Day' will be in 2030.

Proof

Not much is needed in terms of proof for this achievement, just make sure that your expedition takes place on either Geohashing Day or Mouse Over Day.

Regional geohashing achievement

Regionalhashingsimple.png

Template:Regional geohashing

Regionalhashingsimple.png
This user earned the Regional geohashing achievement
by reaching a hash point in all possible {{{region}}} graticules.

The Regional geohashing achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash in each segment of a political/statistical/administrative boundary as split by graticule lines. This means that for for every graticule containing a segment of a certain boundary, you must reach a geohash in all of the individual segments. Rhode Island, for example, has segments in both the Boston, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island graticules. If a user were to successfully reach a geohash in Rhode Island in both of these graticules, they would be eligible for this achievement.

The geohash does not have to be located on land if the boundary extends beyond the coast. The region should ideally cover multiple graticules, but you may claim this achievement for regions fully contained within one graticule. The more graticules there are that contain the boundary, the more impressive the completed achievement will be. In order to keep track of in-progress regions, users have created many different regional geohash maps. It may also prove useful to use an online tool, such as Kripakko's Graticule Partitioner. For the inverse of this achievement, in which users must visit every boundary within a certain graticule, see Reverse regional achievement.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Since you are often required to achieve a success in multiple graticules, you should ensure that all of the expeditions within the chosen boundary have the appropriate proof. Ideally, you should also mention the boundary somewhere on the expedition page(s) to make it clear that they were a part of this achievement.

Longtrekbadge.png
This user earned the XKCD-100 Honorable Mention Achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]]. Alas it was not a Saturday.

The xkcd-100 achievement can be claimed when you travel 100 miles (160 km) or more with the intention of attending a Saturday meetup. Typically, this means on a Saturday at 4pm, but the definition may vary for certain communities or graticules. An honorable mention ribbon is also available to those who successfully reach a geohash after travelling 100 miles or more, but do not meet the requirement for a Saturday meetup.

Proof

As this achievement (usually) requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, you should provide some kind of description or track log as to how you travelled for 100 miles or more. You should also provide proof showing that the requirements of the Saturday meetup have been met when claiming the standard version of this achievement.

This user earned the Picnic achievement
by reaching the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Picnic achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash and enjoy a picnic at the site. The picnic does not need to take place at the exact location of the geohash, it can be at a safe and accessible nearby area. A picnic is defined as sitting down and enjoying food alongside at least one of the following accessories: a picnic basket, a tablecloth/picnic blanket, napkins, plastic or paper tableware. Traditional accompaniments associated in other cultures with a celebratory outdoor meal are also acceptable.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. Additionally, a photograph of the picnic with the geohashers involved should be provided, including at least one of the required picnic items.

Template:Earliest geohasher

Earliest.jpg
This user earned the Earliest geohasher achievement
by arriving first at the ({{{latitude}}}, {{{longitude}}}) geohash on [[{{{date}}} {{{latitude}}} {{{longitude}}}|{{{date}}}]].

The Earliest geohasher achievement can be claimed when you successfully reach a geohash and are the first person to do so at that specific geohash. This achievement can only be claimed for expeditions in which more than one person reaches the geohash. It is also required that at least one of the geohashers involved travels independently from another, rather than everyone arriving as a group. You must both arrive first and meet at least one other geohasher at the geohash; leaving before meeting another geohasher does not make you eligible for this achievement. This meet-up does not have to take place on a Saturday and you may claim this achievement any day of the week.

This achievement should not be confused for the Graticule unlocked achievement, which can be claimed when you are the first person every to successfully reach any geohash in a graticule, nor should it be confused for the Last man standing achievement, which can be claimed when you are the only person to attempt to reach a geohash on a specific date.

Proof

As this achievement requires you to reach the coordinates, standard proof should be provided. You should also provide a photograph showing you arriving at the geohash before any other geohasher, ideally with some kind of indication of the time. Other people who arrive at the geohash after you may be able to back up your claim, which would be sufficient proof.
