|
Award yourself this achievement for geohashing on a leap day, or reaching the geohash on a leap second. This is a chance you will only get every four years, and then they'll cheat you for some!
Bonus points for leaping all the way, meeting a leap of leopards, or doing other leap related activities.
Double bonus points if this is your initial expedition and leap day becomes your Hashiversary.

[hide]Upcoming dates
While the dates of leap days are well known and quite predictable (unless some pope decides to cancel a few of them - but that happened only once in the past 2000 years anyway), leap seconds are only announced a few months before. See the wikipedia article for more information.
If there is a leap second upcoming, please add it here.
Next leap second is at ????-??-?? 23:59:60 UTC
There was a leap second at the end of December 31, 2016 at 23:59:60 UTC.
There was a leap second at the end of June 30, 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC.
Please mind that to earn the achievement by geohashing on a leap second you need to be at the coordinates at the exact time of the leap second. This is not midnight unless you geohash at a place that runs on UTC, so better check your timezone first.
