BEFORE THE RUN

The air is chilly but we are happy to have a sunny day after the rain.

Hare Mad Dog describes his trail

OK, the description is deliberatly inaccurate as is the hashers tradition

AND OFF THEY GO...

"That way" sent the hashers off to a false trail. A good start!

Here Harold and Alex return to the parking area to search for true trail

So do Fair Cop followed by Jacket Off and Codpiece and his dog Alice

Codpiece

Finally on trail

Some puddles left over from the rain

Someone had been removing some of the trail marks and covering the checks with stones.

Our hashers found the trail despite this.

Another check covered with stones.

The trail ascends

Lots of scenic woodland

Jacket Off

Mad Dog poses by a check
