April Local Hashpoints

April 20 Hashpoint

Today's Portland hashpoint is on Sauvie Island, near a trail I have biked along before. I am considering making this relatively easy trip after work. We'll see how things turn out with the rest of the day. --aperfectring 17:42, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

Where to plan

With the User:AperfectBot picking up expedition pages, we should move planning to the expedition page as soon as it becomes clear someone might actually go!

Wil: Anyone know why August 17th is "notable?"

admalledd: No idea.

Unless someone can say why it needs to stay, I'm going to be deleting that section at some point. Also, I'll probably be cleaning up the Daily Locations section by moving all of the text below each date to the YYYY-MM-DD_45_-122 pages RSN. Wil 23:06, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the cleanup, Wil. Do you know who has the first geohash in this graticule? --Thomcat 15:11, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Thomcat, Drache and NoTerminal had the first geohash in the world, and they had it in this graticule.  :) Wil 16:37, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

I completed my cleanup of the Portland page yesterday. The only thing I noticed that need help with is contacting Erin, who was at the 2008-05-26 geohash and who promised us pictures but never posted any. Wil 16:37, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Damn you all in Portland for having an active location. I am the only local to ever visit a Eugene location... It is hard to go when you know you will be the only one there. Grr.

It's a shame that none of the recent (and not-so-recent) expeditions have been written up so that the rest of us can enjoy reading about them. (Or did nobody actually go? Several people are listed as expressing interest.) Can I please encourage you all to write something -- anything! -- about your expeditions? Thanks. -- Benjw 17:59, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

I second Benjw's request. Make quickie expedition pages showing whether or not you reached the coordinates, just so that we an count you in the global statistics. -Robyn 17:17, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

• Up on the Washington side of the river. Rhonda is in town for a brief time, and wants to go geohashing while here. Since this seems to be a decently good point, though a bit far for a weekday, I shall be making an attempt for it. --aperfectring 16:01, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

April 13 Hashpoint

Today's Portland hashpoint is in the 22500 block of SW Johnson, close to Century High School. It appears to be in the street.

I'll probably head there at lunch, maybe with Aperfectring. Jiml 15:03, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

• Obnoxiously, it's about a mile from where I teach.... on Wednesdays. But not someplace I can reasonably get to on Tuesdays. Curses! Michael5000 22:42, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
