I can certainly stop again if someone would like to meet. --Thomcat 10:51, 18 September 2012 (EDT)
- I could make it at any time from about 6:30pm or later. Maybe even a little earlier than that, depends on traffic, bus, etc. getting home from where I am now in Friday Harbor. I will check this page again around 5:30 or 6. I will hit the point at some time regardless of course, can't miss this! -- OtherJack 15:30, 18 September 2012 (EDT)
Expedition
This is probably a couch potato honorable mention for OtherJack.
Pulling up the geohash at 6:32 am, I see that it is only 3.8km from my house. As I am ready to go to work, I hop in the car and drive to the spot, checking at a stoplight that sunrise is at 6:51am. Combining the two events, I arrive and have a leisurely minute to leave a nice marker at the spot where geohashdroid landed on the coordinates. Satellite photo shows it to be across the street, where my car is parked in the photo.
21 minutes to arrival at the geohash from the announcing of coordinates. I wonder if that's the quickest time to geohash, or if someone has managed sooner? This is strictly a "west of 30" game, because the other guys have the geohash a whole day in advance.
