Talk:Walking on water geohash achievement
From Geohashing

- There should be an award for walking on water; that is, for arriving at a water geohash on foot. (This is easier in the winter.) I want to call it a JesuHash, but that might be a little over the top/offensive to some. Alternatives include Chauncey Gardiner Hash, Being There Hash, or just Walk On Water Hash. --starbird 21:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

- I actually thought we already had that one. Perhaps I thought of it earlier and didn't make it. Now it's really too bad we didn't make our last Surrey hash across the frozen swamp. I favour simply "Walking on Water Geohash" it still implies Jesus without alienating anyone. Is the achievement for the HASH to be on frozen water (lucky location), or simply the approach (getting there)? Include a safety disclaimer and a link to ice-rescue techniques. -Robyn 18:33, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
- I think the hashpoint itself should be a water location, a la Water Geohash. Frozen water should not be part of the requirement; maybe somebody has really big inflatable shoes, or something. --starbird 00:30, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
