Planning

  • I expect to be in the Cape May area this summer at least once, and if I can get to Wildwood, I will attempt to reach the Christmas Day 2008 geohash. From Google Maps, it appears to be about 100ft off the beach, straight out from Rio Grande Avenue, which happens to be the main road between Wildwood and the mainland.
  • After looking at a roadmap and pin-pointing the geohash, it is much further from shore than I thought. It's almost 1000 feet from where the map says the shoreline is. So rather than swimming for it, the retrohash will have to wait for a day where my uncle feels like taking the boat out.
