Why go geohashing

Please add new headings and reasons or extend the ones already in this A to Z. This is to prove we are not insane (maybe) ...

The list is somewhat alphabetically sorted by heading and bullet point.

Adventure

• Fall down a rabbit hole but fail to find a bottle labeled "drink me".
• Get disoriented on foot, at midnight in extremely thick fog away from any visible landmark.

Astronomy

• See meteor trails.

Get scared

• Visit a graveyard as the bells toll midnight.

Hunter gatherer

• Find and eat wild food, blackberries, mushrooms.

International

• Go hashing in France, Cyprus, Tenerife, mainland Spain, Scotland and Wales - because you were there.

Party time

• Do a double hash spanning the midnight of Christmas eve and Christmas day - fail to spot Santa, see red deer instead.
• Do a double hash spanning the midnight of new year's eve and new years day. Watch the candle powered hot air balloons.

Set World Records

Have your name in the records FOREVER!

• Be the first to reach a hash in a Graticule no one has ever been to before.
• Go Higher, Further (N, S, E, W) or Stronger (hottest, coldest).

Science

• At the start of an expedition, you have two eigenstates in a quantum superposition (reachable and unreachable). Only when you observe the hashpoint can you collapse the wave function and find out which. No cats are harmed though. Some hashpoints may cause entanglement depending on the terrain and vegetation.

Social

• Meet another geohasher (and get biscuits).
• Read expedition reports from other geohashers who have done even cooler things.

Take your clothes off

• Strip off to ford a creek.
• Wade out to sea in underpants.

Weather

• Get cold, wet, wind-swept, sun-burned and exfoliated by wind-blown sand (not all on one day).

Weirdness

• Find a hash-circle of trodden down vegetation at the hashpoint, even when you know you are the first to arrive because it's midnight.
• Visit so many hashpoints that you start accidentally re-visiting while aiming for new points.

Wildlife

• Spot a badger, deer, glow worm, hare, hedgehog, owl, rabbit, seal.
