From Geohashing
About Me
My permanent home is in the 41,-86 graticule and go to school (and live) in the 40,-86 graticule. My boyfriend StatMan22 got me interested in geohashing. He recently bought a GPS so we use that on our adventures we do together.
Equipment
I only have my smartphone which is not as accurate as a straight up GPS, but it will do.
Cameras
- iPhone
- Canon SX210IS
- Nikon D5100
