From Geohashing

I suggest to move this to Traveling hashman achievement. And create a redirect from Travelling hashman achievement, or the other way around. -- relet

I don't know. Reaching seven hash points seems pretty massive to me. It's an interesting feat, but I wouldn't create the achievement before anyone actually attempted it. -- relet 21:44, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- It's something truly notable to achieve. I doubt anyone in vancouver will be able to pull it off, due to severe geographical constraints, but I think some ambitious germans or even atlantans could pull it off... -- Xore 21:51, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
My first few thoughts:
- Hardly achievable, as the chance that all seven points are reachable is almost zero in most graticules.
- Contradicts the spirit of going on the actual day, as it means to skip six possible days of valid coordinates just to have a small chance at the end of the week, which then still may turn out being void. Each expedition skipped for that is a loss to true geohashing.
- Only possible by burning a lot of fuel on a car. Simply impossible with any other kind of transport.
