From Geo Hashing

Returned to the Bathurst, New Brunswick grat after completing schooling in the Surrey, British Columbia graticule. 2008 brought me one or two hashes...

I discovered geohashing on August 6, 2008.

[edit] Contributions

I created most of the New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island graticule pages, and created the Regional Geohashing and Globalhash achievements. I also helped with the Regional Geohashing display, mapping out Canada and Chile.

Currently working on the A Tale of Two Hashes achievement. Put in your input!

[edit] Hashes I've visited

[edit] Surrey

• 2008-09-19 Talk like a pirate day got me out for a quick hash; I've decided to call it a drunken success in retrospect. Pirates don't care about the exact correct spot!

[edit] Bathurst

• 2008-08-10 4 km from my home for the summer, and on a Sunday. No GPS, but got there, and supplied just enough photographic evidence. I think.

[edit] Hashes I've attempted

[edit] Surrey

• 2008-10-18 On prison grounds, and inaccessible, despite it's closeness to the school.

[edit] Moncton

• 2009-07-12 Ended up about 30 m short, but I got a rather amusing report out of it.

[edit] Balmoral

• 2009-08-23 10 m of steep cliff short.

[edit] Bathurst

• 2009-08-25 Thwarted by beavers. BEAVERS!
