some ideas for achievements maybe to be proposed
Towel Day achievement / Towel achievement / 42. achievement / Interstellar Hitchhiker achievement
for bringing a towel with you to the hash. Extra points if you do this on May 25th. Why a towel? Given the obvious similarity between geohashing and interstellar hitchhiking, I can only quote:
"A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapors; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-boggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough." - Douglas Adams The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Proof
In addition to the usual proof of reaching the geohash, the minimum is to provide a picture of you, your towel and a stupid grin. Pictures of you performing some off the above said activities with your towels are preferred though.
