  • 2008-05-31 Columbus, OH - In the middle of a field. Very nice breezy day, with pop-up storms nearby. Very nice day to go for a walk, dodging last year's corn stalks.
  • 2008-05-31 Frederick, MD - Unsuccessful attempt to reach the point by Ciel. Couldn't get closer than 700 feet without trespassing.
  • 2008-05-31 Minneapolis, MN - Seems to be right on the Mississippi. There's a bar near there, Baggans Pub‎,3720 E River Rd, Minneapolis, MN. It's 2:31 Central, should be at bar at 3 for warm up and at river at 4 for smoke break.
  • 2008-05-31 Canberra, Australia - Successfully reached by a group. Photos and story attached.
  • 2008-05-31 Syracuse, NY - Location is in a residential neighborhood in Camillus, near the old Camillus mall. (will show up if others respond)
  • 2008-05-31 Sacramento, CA - Location is in Stockton between I-5 and CA highway 99.
  • 2008-05-31 Conway, AR Location is pretty close to Conway! It looks like its on private property. (If the trees shield me from nearby homes I'll be on the spot, if not I'll be around probably parked on the side of the road or somewhere within sight of the hashpoint at 3-4PM.)
  • 2008-05-31 Cologne, Germany - In the graticule north, 51, 6, Baal, NRW, corner of Güterstrasse and Krefelder Strasse. Kliment was there with food. Noone else showed up.
  • 2008-05-31 Boston, MA - Just south of a campground area in Foxboro, MA.
  • 2008-05-31 Chicago, IL - This is the closest graticule out of the four to the city. Not that that necessarily means it is the best.
  • 2008-05-31 Kansas City, MO - In a wooded area between two courts in Blue Springs.
  • 2008-05-31 Harrisburg, PA - Lancaster. A bit far.. I plan on going to the Williamsport, PA's hash.-Jon
  • 2008-05-31 Baltimore, MD - At the mouth of the tidal Chester River as it meets Chesapeake Bay off Love Point. Could be done with a boat. Landlubbers can meet in the last block of Love Point Rd. where Riverview Rd. jogs. Just the fact that the nearest land is called Love Point should be of interest to xkcd fans in search of love. Dan
  • 2008-05-31 Los Angeles, CA - Nearby to USC. It is right on (or under) the 10 Fwy.
  • 2008-05-31 Springfield, MA - I'll be there at the meeting time. I'm stopping at Brattleboro on the way. If anyone else is going, let me know!! chrisinajar
  • 2008-05-31 St. Marys, PA Although I had planned to hash the State College area, I'll be going to this one.
  • 2008-05-31 State College, PA - This one is waay too far from me, but...
  • 2008-05-31 Williamsport, PA - This one is pretty close to me, one graticle north, between a field and some farmer's house. I'll likely be going here. - Clint Clint, that one's an hour from me so it is also doable. -Jon Awesome! I just got another friend on board here, and my brothers may be going with me so we'll have a small group there. Hope to see you! - Clint Time to make this graticule "active". Williamsport seems to be the most populated city, I plan to make the Williamsport Graticule page. --Jon
  • 2008-05-31 Rochester, NY - Very reachable! Between Macedon and Palmyra, ESE of Rochester. danierrr
  • 2008-05-31 Portland, OR - Actual location is in the middle of nowhere.
  • 2008-05-31 Melbourne, FL - nurbles is bummed out because the new (corrected) location is several miles offshore and he doesn't own a boat. detzold is also bummed and has canceled the party!
  • 2008-05-31 Toronto, ON - Actual location is unfortunately somewhere halfway from St. Catharines to Welland. UPDATE Why don't we use Friday's spot? It's located in a sand trap in a golf course in Markham.
  • 2008-05-31 West London - The new location is in the middle of a wood (probably private) whereas the old one is just a few metres off a public foothpath!
  • 2008-05-31 Melbourne, Australia - paritybit Will be in the SOUTH EAST Melbourne graticule with a group of 5-8 around 3:30pm or so.
  • 2008-05-31 Cambridge, United Kingdom - New location seems to be on the middle of a field near Safron Walden, could meet at the corner of Ashdon Rd and Butlers Ln which is 500 Ft away?
  • 2008-05-31 San Jose, CA - A mile south of Hwy 152, on a ridge with an existing fire road.
  • 2008-05-31 Muncie, IN - In the middle of Summit Lake, in a section marked "No boating" by the DNR. Old location was near the Mississinewa reservoir, so we'll be going there to play disc golf as originally planned, around 3pm.
  • 2008-05-31 Surrey, BC, Canada - Between two houses in Abbotsford. See the linked page for more information. People from Vancouver should use this graticule again, since the actual Vancouver one is over the water.
  • 2008-05-31 Winchester, Hampshire, UK - We'll be meeting at the Percy Hobbs pub close to the geohash coords at around 3. We'll bring games. See You there! -- SinJax
  • 2008-05-31 Manchester, United Kingdom - Location appears to be right in the middle of a farm, not sure if access is possible but I'll be wandering around the road nearest the location at 4pm. I don't know the area too well so if anyone knows any good pubs nearby, feel free to suggest them. Tommy 01:15, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
  • 2008-05-31 Christchurch, New Zealand - Location is in the middle of nowhere! Lovely tussock highland in the Lees Valley. 2 1/2 hr drive mostly on gravel roads, followed by a 1 hr hike.
  • 2008-05-31 Cincinnati, OH - Looks like a beautiful location for a meetup: southeast of the city, an undeveloped field just outside an exurban residential community. Pity I won't be able to make it - enjoy, hashers! - Danny
  • 2008-05-31 Sudbury, ON - Located roughly 80km south of the city, near Killarney Provincial Park. We're going to head there for 4pm. Exact site is 1.8km south of the road. Worst case, we'll just stay on the road, but we might walk into the bush. No FRS radio, but I will have a 2m HAM radio on 146.520 simplex.Dtompsett
