Planning

Getting there by bus:

• nearest bus stop: the 351 stops on King George and 32 Ave
• the stop is about 3.4 km away from the hashpoint; quick bike ride, or longish walk
• 351 route map and time table

For those taking the bus, you can join us at these meetpoints:

• 8:50 at Burrard Station
• 9:00 at Broadway and Granville

Bicyclists: caution, there are only 2 bike rack spots on each 351 bus, and the buses are half an hour apart on sunday.

Detailed planning and schedules moved to talk page

Expeditions

To summarize, success. The two groups managed to converge on the hash point at almost exactly the same time, and we were given permission to enter the property. Ambassador achievement for some, cycling for others, and yangman tried and failed at Tron due to getting lost. Then we had a picnic about a block away.

Details later.

Achievements

We all earned the Ambassador achievement by obtaining permission from the property owners to access the (49, -122) geohash on 2009-06-14.
