Links
Various links of interest.
Geohashes Attempted
I've listed the most recent first:
- 2009-06-22 48 -123 (Victoria, BC: Cole Bay): thwarted due to time constraints (would have waded 8m into the ocean to get the point otherwise).
- 2009-06-13 48 -123 (Victoria, BC: William Head Institute): thwarted by private property (correctional officers wouldn't let me in for some reason :-)
Retro Expedition Candidates
Here's a list of potential retro expeditions to take and why.
- 2008-05-21 Vancouver: Date the Geohashing web comic was published.
- Looks like a short walk from the Gabriola Island ferry.
- 2005-05-26 Victoria: Origin date of XKCD web comic.
- Looks quite accessible on Salt Spring Island
- 1998-09-19 Victoria: Date my wife & I got married (in the same graticule no less), which would qualify for the Wedding anniversary geohash achievement.
- In the bush near Jordan River -- looks doable though.
- 1972-08-02 Victoria: My birthday in my local graticule, which would qualify for the Displaced origin geohash achievement.
- Looks fairly accessible out in East Sooke.
- 1972-08-02 Montreal: My birthday in my birth graticule, which would qualify for the Origin geohash achievement.
- It actually looks pretty doable. Just got to get myself to the Montreal area first, that's all.
