Hi. My name is Rhonda, and I like adventure. Robyn thinks I am at least as insane as she is, possibly due to my first ever geohash being a (planned) 4 hour kayak expedition.

Geohashes attempted

Geohashers met

Goals

My origin hash spot looks so easy to access, I'm going to go for it next time I visit my parents. It's about 500m (straight line) from highway 5, and google maps shows what appears to be a logging road that passes within 20m or less of the spot.

Personal firsts

This is things that I did for the first time in my life while or because of geohashing.

  • Rode a bike across an international border.
  • Went to the US on a lark. (All other trips were planned in advance.)
