Today's Location: [Waterloo, Ontario]

The Region of Waterloo graticule is at latitude 43, longitude -80. It is immediately west of the Toronto graticule. It includes Kitchener-Waterloo, Guelph, Cambridge, Brantford, Paris, Fergus and a lot of countryside. Along with the standard list of non-meetup places (lakes, oceans, military zones), we are thinking that excessive cow patties may be reason to bail out.

2012-12-21 JenDav: Anyone planning on going to this weekend's geohash? It's not far from Kitchener/Waterloo and I have room for two if you'd like a ride.

Notable Events

12-July-2008: Geohash is in Guelph Lake (the park, folks, not the lake)

06-July-2008: Geohash is on the north side of Road 80 between Milverton and Listowel.

15-June-2008: The geohash hits right in the middle of the community center/baseball diamond/arena in the small town of Wellesley.

2-June-2008: Geohash falls into NE waterloo suburbs, in particular a field on the corner of Northfield and Bridge.

31-May-2008: The geohash spot is in a farmer's field(?) at the corner of Cockshutt Rd. & Oakland Rd. — which is not particularly near Guelph or Stratford.
