Curbside geohash outside Queen Anne Vision Clinic

Participants

Plans

Late afternoon, after work - time flexible

  • Same. 5:30 is the earliest I can plan on. Coyotebush (talk) 16:26, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
5:30 it is. --Thomcat (talk) 19:13, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Expedition

Zebburkeconte

Not able to be there at 5:30 but happy to have reached my first geohash in a few years!

Thomcat

I parked across the street. GPS had some difficulties with fix, and it seemed the closer I got to the eye clinic, the further across the street it wanted to put me. Maybe I just need better glasses?

The satellite photo is pretty grainy, but shows the hashpoint as between the two trees at the curb. I chalked the nearby wall - marks on vertical surfaces last a little longer, though we haven't had serious rain in a while.

Meetup and expedition success, coordinates definitely reached - even if the devices were loathe to show it.

coyotebush

Got briefly confused biking through the neighborhood and rolled up to Thomcat a couple minutes after 5:30. My GPS readings from the curb were well within error. I soon headed home via the scenic trail along the bay.
