Eldin,

I've been hesistating to put up this comment. But you're picture shows a reading of almost 450ft off the destination. I'm really sorry but in my opinion that's a not reached. It should be within the range of uncertainty which is usually (in open spaces) around 3-4 meter, so 10-15ft. At least on my Oregon 450. My crappy phone goed wild but at least it does not claim to be 1 kilometer and 13 millimeter off.

Remember that geohashing is not about collecting 'points'. It's about FUN! I'd rather have 100 'not reached' than 1 'reached' when I'm sure I was not really there. Wish I had time to get to 1000 not reached, sadly most of our haspoints fall in the sea. Of course, I could go to the beach a lot!
