I'm now in Vancouver.  I hope to see what this graticule is all about.
  
−
I geohash mostly in the [[Vernon, British Columbia|Vernon]] and [[Mabel Lake, British Columbia]] graticules.  It's a great place to be if you like to get to the middle of nowhere.  Unfortunately it also means there's no other geohashers around.

 +
*I don't reach a large amount of my coordinates, despite spending the better part of a day trying.

I drive a Subaru Legacy, which is a great car for all the unpaved roads here.  It doesn't always cut it on the logging roads and four-wheeler trails, which are required for most hash points.  Nevertheless, I think I surprise some of the pickups passing by, and sometimes myself.
+
==Expeditions==
−
 
 
−
I enjoy hiking, and soon invested in some real boots and a backpack from the Mountain Equipment Co-op.  The stuff is worth every penny.  I still can't get everywhere I want, and find myself looking at dual-sport motorcycles, river kayaks, and snowshoes.

==Photography==
 
−
 
 
−
I enjoy photography, and geohashing gave me the last incentive I needed to purchase a digital SLR.  My early photos are with a point & shoot, and I'm still learning with the SLR.  I've since purchased a good tripod, a shutter release, a hot shoe level, and a polarizing filter.  I hope as I continue, I'll be able to look at my photos and see a progression of improvement.

I'm now in Vancouver. I hope to see what this graticule is all about.

Not-so-random facts

  • I'm the only geohasher resident in my graticule of Vernon, British Columbia, Canada.
  • With a visit from Robyn, we made Vernon the most active graticule for July 2010.
  • I have a large gallery of geohashing photos that I call my favourites.
  • I am one of the lucky few to have enjoyed a camping geohash.
  • I have met some really awesome geohashers.
  • I don't reach a large amount of my coordinates, despite spending the better part of a day trying.
