Revision as of 04:03, 10 February 2011

Geohasher based in the 34, -84 graticule with regular trips to 35, -84; 34, -85; and 35, -85.

My faithful sidekick and partner (though he claims he's the master and I'm the minion) is my hashcot Chibithulu. The latest addition to my Geohashing equipment is a Garmin GPS72, a discontinued model, but it does what I need it to do as long as I don't cause operator error...

Expeditions

2011-01-30 Sunday Across from a monument at Chickamauga Battlefield.

2010-10-04 In some woods off of Davenport Rd. not far from the Dalton Airport, which due to user error is not where I ended up on my retro expedition...
