Today's Location: Minneapolis, MN

Minneapolis's southwest graticule is at latitude 44, longitude -93. This contains most of Minneapolis and St. Paul, stretching farther south than Mankato, and just as west.

Local Geohashers

Rob lives near this and Minneapolis NW, Minnesota, also regrets missing on Saturday, and is keeping his options open for this weekend.

Chris is abysmally busy, and would normally update the daily locations by now, but work is killing him. He'll get to it today, though. He is not planning on attending any geohash until this weekend (May 31st).

Abi lives in south Minneapolis, and will try to make it to the geohashes that don't require expending an excessive quantity of gas to get there. Her ability to make it to this Saturday's (May 24) geohash is completely dependent on her ability to pull herself off a hiking trail in time to get there. If she does make it, she will bring Ingenious.

Ford lives in St. Paul and hates to drive. I guess one only has to go on hash once in a lifetime to be a hashi, though.

Jennifer lives in St. Paul and will be attending when both work, location, and the stars collide. It's more than likely she will be at ones closer to the city than those further out like Saturday's (May 24 2008) location.

Erica actually lives in the SE graticule of the Twin Cities, but is open to traveling to other Geo Hashes that are somewhat close by.

Alex lives in South Minneapolis and would love to do this on a Saturday when she can tear herself away from grading papers (which will get much easier in, oh, two weeks).

digory lives here and will attend either these ones or the Minneapolis NW, Minnesota as he has time and they are reasonably accessible (or unreasonably as he has more time)

Michael lives in this graticule, but can't drive like many others, so will attend these or the Minneapolis NW, Minnesota ones if they are close by.

Brendan lives near this graticule and is able to drive anywhere within reason

Joel lives just northwest of Minneapolis but is keeping an eye on this square also.

mike has too many vehicles, but prefers to stick to his bicycle or motorcycle when possible.
