Look what is having a birthday!

The Beginning

A fun Castle Mountain Ski trip was thoughtfully arranged by Hot Cheeks this year. Early booking meant that we got the chalet that we wanted. The Timberock Chalet has an upstairs, downstairs and a hot tub. What more could the hash ask for.

Once you have traversed the ice, the steps are rewarding!

Following tradition, a run was set for the Saturday evening. A numbered run, which heightens the hashing experience at Castle Mountain.

Shakesbeer volunteered to set trail through the community and the wilderness trails. A daunting task for one hasher to complete, but Shakesbeer came through after a tough day of skiing the mountain!

After skiing, T-baring, hot tubbing, steam showering, it was time for the group to get ready to run the trail. Rousing them from their beer enhanced lethargy was a challenge.

We are really not interested in running….

With suitable encouragement, shoes, ice crampons, hats and gloves were found and the ritual of putting on the shoes began.

Eventually, the pack formed at the bottom of the stairs of the chalet, eager to get this run started and finished.

The pack emerges from the comfort of inside

Collecting the group into a circle proved challenging. However, through perseverance, the stand in Hash Master, Skewbic Hair, managed to pull this off.

With the announcements and introductions completed, the hare was called into the circle to describe the marks for the trail.

With the instructions complete, the pack was released to the darkness and ice to find the marks.

The Trail

The trail headed off in an easterly direction toward the parking lot. Flagging marks were found and we now had a direction to follow along the road to the parking lot.

At the guest services (hostel) location, more marks were found to lead us onto the village trail. Footing was difficult and the marks were somewhat difficult to find for the runners.

As we continued through the forest, eventually stumbling upon more marks and the designated stop for the visit with our Ski Calgary Group friends who were also enjoying Castle this weekend.

After a bit of hospitality, we were back on the trail to complete our mission.

Eventually we found our way back to the Timberock Chalet, and proceeded inside to get organized for the down downs.

The Down Downs

With great anticipations, the group settled down into their comfy couches in anticipation of the down downs. The Religious Advisor was Skewbic Hair. A very busy evening for this guy.

Skewbic Hair was called into service to conduct the down downs. No choir needed, so lets just get into it!

To the host, Hot Cheeks for making this weekend happen!

Now, to the hare for setting such a fine run through the wilds of the Castle Mountain community.

Shakesbeer made the trail happen – Shitty trail!

We have a naming. The person formerly known as Just Rowena, receives here own hash name of Raw Weiner! The smile says it all.

Others were acknowledged for various crimes and infractions. We did have some drop in folks from the Ski Calgary Group who are interested in knowing more about our cult. Recruitment potential!

With the formalities over, it was time to get serious about T-barring, hot tubbing and beer drinking. These are the reasons we come on these trips!

An epic meandering trail through the dark with plenty of ice and chances to fall. No one died and all returned safety. Thanks to Shakesbeer to setting the trail.

Prestwick Pond Terrace SE, Calgary

RA: Stool Stuffer

Attendance: 10

Best address in the neighbourhood!

The Beginning

Nothing like an afternoon run on New Year’s Day to set the year off to a good start. We were pleased when Slippy Thong volunteered to set trail on this auspicious day.

This is an afternoon run where the group is encouraged to wear there best formal wear. The result is quite an interesting display of fashion sense.

We started at Slippy’s place, where she had set an ambitious trail. We appreciated the effort that she put forward for this signature event.

The group collected inside in the warm, and started munching on the abundance of snacks and treats that Slippy had provided.

We waited attentively for the arrival of the last hashers to appear, then headed outside to circle up in the grey, foggy weather.

Stool Stuffer ran the circle and went through the announcements and introductions. With a small group, that did not take much time.

Slippy Thong was called into the circle to describe the marks she had diligently set for a serious trail.

The marks were explained by Slippy Thong

With the marks described, the hash had a bit of a revelation. Given the state of the group (old, tired, injured etc.), the pack declared this to be a walk with a beer and a chat. Slippy complied, as she will put the trail in inventory to bring it back out for the Full Moon Trail in February 2026.

Off we went on our New Years walk.

After an arduous lap of the pond, we stumbled across the regroup where suitable beverages were available! A great way to start the year with a minor walk with a celebration at the end.

Rashy and Mr. PeeeeeNut entertain Twisty

With the regroup complete, we headed back to Slippy’s place for eating, drinking and down down’s.

The Down Down’s

Stool Stuffer was the Religious Advisor (RA) for the afternoon. He prepared his program and the refreshments were made ready.

Stool Stuffer began going through his list of crimes, punishments and rewards!

We wrapped up by looking for a RA volunteer for the next trail. I believe Hardly put up his hand, which is greatly appreciated. Now finished the down down’s, we continued to eat, drink and socialize.

Wear your Boxing Shorts!

The Beginning

As Christmas is not hectic enough, it is always a good plan to have a run on Boxing Day, December 26. As society wakes up to hit the malls for the Boxing Day sales, the hash prepares for the traditional afternoon run to celebrate the occasion.

Wear your boxing shorts or a wrapped cardboard box and you have what you need for the run.

Hardly and Twisty volunteered to set trail and host the run. The afternoon was cool but sunny. Not much temperature, but not the polar vortex either.

The group arrived at the Hardly Twisty house to prepare for the run. As the afternoon is difficult for some, there were some tardy hashers who missed the circle and start. More on that later!

Thankfully, there were hashers who had the presence of mind to take pictures in the absence of the hash photographer and scribe, who was late to the party.

The circle was called and the intrepid hashers marched down the front stairs to circle up across the street at Dirty Dancer’s driveway.

The circle was conducted by someone present, and the hares were called into the circle.

With the marks explained, the pack was released to find the true trail.

The Trail

Off through the snowy neighbourhoods to find the marks. The blue chalk marks were located and the trail was ran. A sufficient number of check backs were also found on trail to heighten the trail experience.

The trail reached the end, and the group assembled in the nice heated garage of Dirty Dancers to go through the down downs.

The Down Downs

The warm garage location was much appreciated. There was refreshments and food. Hardly and Twisty did a fine job of handling the crowd.

This is the point where the late comers, Scoobie and King Shit found the balance of the pack. All was well and there was much rejoicing.

The group got settled and enjoyed the fine food and goodies.

Tighty Whitey was the Religious Advisor (RA) for the afternoon. Tighty has fond memories of being named at such an event at the defunct Len’s Den pub in the Ambassador Motel. Apparently the boxing shorts theme was interpreted as the underwear he had on. Fact or fiction, it was the motivation for or RA to share his namesake wardrobe.

TW went through his program of honouring those that set up the trail, as well as other stories that required a down down.

With the down down’s complete, Tighty Whitey declared the group to be “on the piss”.

A fine boxing day event and thanks to all that made it happen.

The Grey Cup – A Canadian Football Tradition

The Beginning

We have great hopes that the Canadian Football League will continue to function, and we support their endeavours. As this event is shortly after the MisManagement turnover, remembering that it a thing that we do and is a numbered run can be challenging!

We were pleased that Booty Camp and Snow Blower remembered and volunteered to hot this afternoon run. This is a special event with an afternoon run followed by a hosted feast and finally some sort of football game.

The game was in Winnipeg this year, and featured the Saskatchewan Rough Riders and the Montreal Alouettes. Absent from the roster was the local Calgary Stampeders football team. They, unfortunately, did not make it through the selection process. Hopes for next year!

The weather was surprisingly pleasant for mid November afternoon with sunny above zero temperatures and no snow. As such, setting trail and following marks were not as much of a problem that they could be at this time of year.

The group converged on the starting location and gathered inside in anticipation for the run start.

The hostess takes stock of the home invasion

Given sufficient time to all to arrive, the group was called outside to circle up on the front lawn.

Roaring Nancy with this Irish speaking supporters

Camshaft called the circle to order and we went through the announcements and introductions.

Camshaft getting ready to start the circle

The hare was called into the middle of the circle. Booty Camp made the marks and described their meaning. Snow Blower sends his regrets for not being their personally. Apparently an out of town commitment precluded his attendance in person, but he was instrumental in setting the trail.

Here are the marks. Should be easy to find trail!

Booty Camp pointed in the direction of the run start and the pack was released.

The Trail

Off into the neighbourhood to find the marks. On On was called and the runners dispersed. The walkers received instruction on which way to go and we were all off!

As we meandered through the leafy neighbourhood of Briar Park, we came upon our local shrine to the sport of football.

We chose to take a group shot of the walkers so we could remember what a great time we were having!

Over the bridge across Crowchild Trail and back to the neighbourhood.

Scoobie considers a scooter trip. This has not ended well for others!

As we continued through the neighbourhood, we came upon the regroup vehicle and there was much rejoicing.

Apparently, some were wearing the colours of their preferred team. Here is the evidence!

The group enjoyed the regroup until it was time to head back to the run start to prepare for both the down down’s and the football game.

The Down Down’s

Inside the warmth of the inside, the group enjoyed snacks and refreshments. Much mingling and chatting in preparation for the closing ceremonies, feast and football game.

Tighty Whitey and Stool Stuffer were the tag team Religious Advisors. The refreshments were prepared to our beer wench, Liquor Lots (Sicker Lots).

Stool Stuffer and Tighty Whitey ready to go

Stool Stuffer and Tighty Whitey appointed a choir of Slippy Thong, and Mmmmm Lady Fingers

The program started with a series of down down’s honouring the hare, and other various and sundry offences. A high contingent of sexual offences were called out!

With all done, we gave the RA’s a down down and we on the piss.

Much food and yummy things were enjoyed in anticipation of the big game. Lets see how this will end up!

Trail Summary

Apparently the runners endured something close to 7 km. The walkers trail was close to 4 km’s. A great trail for the Grey Cup Run.

RA: Hump the Shark

Attendance: 25

Ready to Energize!

The Beginning

Halloween is an interesting time of year for some. It brings out some creativity for those that like to dress up! With the Monday run falling a few days before the calendar Halloween, time for a downtown run from a dive bar.

AP and PMS have been magnanimous is setting trail recently, somewhat due to their commitment to the hash, and perhaps some free time afforded them by the teacher strike.

Vern’s is a special place to host a run. Not for the mainstream, they cater to a clientele on the edge of society. A great place to host a dress up hash run! The downstairs location made the vibe even more special!

The hashers assembled in the basement dive bar and a bit of costume appraisal took place prior to the run.

Others in costume were afraid to come into the bar, so we will find them in the circle! Some baseball game was on in the bar, but it was time to circle up outside!

A few additions to the group here!

Insane Bolt ran the circle as we went through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks to expect for the circle!

With some explanation on the use flagging and the pack was released. Off we went to find the marks!

The Trail

A hunt for marks began. Some false trails to allow the fast runners to vent some energy, then find and follow the true trail.

Continuing our urban exploration, the start to angle toward the river trail system.

Carrying on through Princess (Monkey Spanker) Island Park, we had both dark pathways and parks.

There was a huge staircase out of the river valley. For those that missed the check, 167 stairs in total. Too exhausted to take any pictures, but the view was spectacular!

Hashers taking it all in.

Hump the Shark trying to get in shape for the remainder of the run

More sites to take in . Of course a run through the Library concourse is good form.

Dodging traffic, people, other distractions then off to the C-Train for a cross town rescue.

Finally, the regroup vehicle was spotted and there was much rejoicing.

Refreshments were enjoyed until it was time to head back to the bar.

Milling about – there was a show for the ones that were there!

Beer was ordered and paid for with cash only. Did not know that we had that sort of thing still around! Down down’s to follow.

Down Down’s

Hump the Shark was the chosen Religious Advisor (RA) for the evening. He had quite a task ahead of him with the amount of material generated on trail.

The hares were celebrated for setting a fine trail. Notwithstanding the large distance we had to cover. An epic trail was set and delivered.

Other offences we cited by the RA.

With the down down’s completed, we were declared “on the piss”. Apparently the baseball game was still on for those that were interested.

Trail Summary

The trail ended up to be close to 10 km in length. However, a portion of this was on the C-Train. Thus, personal records were set for the speed of some of those km’s. Great views of the city and an opportunity to see parts of the city not normally experienced.

RA: Hardly

Attendance: 14

Thankful for Wet Beaver

The Beginning

The Thanksgiving Holiday is a significant milestone in the calendar. Lots of turkey and family stuff going on. Setting a Thanksgiving Hash Run is getting more difficult as the group gets smaller, and those willing to host are scarce.

For this year, we decided for make the Thanksgiving Run a regular evening run and found two enthusiastic teachers with time to set trail.

Abandoned Pussy and Princess Monkey Spanker volunteered to set trail from Local 403 Eatery and Pub off Canyon Meadows Drive SE. This location is very close to Fish Creek, a harbinger of things to come!

The group arrived in the twilight as darkness for the run is now a thing. We started inside and waited patiently for the group to fill out.

We headed outside to circle up in the diminishing daylight. Needed to get the circle done and out on the trail as darkness will be a challenge for the Fish Creek experience that the hares had in store for us.

Insane Bolt was the Hashmaster of the day. He quickly went through the announcements and introductions prior to calling for the hares.

The hares described the marks they had planned for the trail!

The pack was released to find the marks of the true trail.

The Trail

Off from the parking lot, we headed toward Fish Creek Park to see if we were on trail. A cunning false trail was awaiting the fast hashers. Eventually, the true trail was discovered and the park was afoot!

Off to the dark trails of Fish Creek. Some interesting things were seen, including a wet beaver and a marked tree.

Through the dark pathways, we finally emerged out of the valley and into the neighbourhood!

Eventually, we stumbled upon the regroup after taking the pedestrian C-Train bridge over Macleod Trail.

A bit of mingling in the dark while enjoying the beverages from the regroup car.

PMS figuring things out. Was it really that long and hard?

After a discussion, it was decided to do abbreviated outside down down’s with Hardly as the Religious Advisor (RA).

The Down Down’s

Hardly made up material and we agreed that the choir would be the group! Let’s get this done so we can go inside for more beer!

The hares were acknowledged followed by other accusations. A rant of stories, truth and lies.

After all the stories were delivered, Hardly declared the group “on the piss”.

The group retired to the Local 403 for more refreshments and food. A fine trail was enjoyed by all.

Trail Summary

The trail was somewhere around 6 km through the darkness of Fish Creek! An enjoyable hashing experience was had by all.

RA: Abandoned Pussy

Attendance: 19

A Labour of Love

The Beginning

Labour Day signals the end of summer. No more wearing white. It is also a big football day in Canada with Edmonton and Calgary teams inconveniently playing in the afternoon.

Booty Camp and Snow Blower have a great place for afternoon runs. With a great location and a fine backyard, no better place to start and finish trail on a hot summer afternoon.

The group found street parking and gathered in the backyard.

Time to run, so PMS called the circle to order and went through the program of announcements and introductions. Booty Camp and Snow Blower went through the marks. The pack was released to find true trail.

The Trail

Off into the Capitol Hill neighbourhood to find the marks. Looks like the trail ran through Confederation Park and meandered through the streets and alleys.

Playground action was enjoyed. Hashers were scaring off the small children from the vicinity.

Hot Cheeks considering a career in pole dancing

Eventually, the regroup was discovered and a refreshment was enjoyed by the group.

After the regroup was completed, the pack migrated back to the Booty Blower Bodega backyard (B4) for down down’s.

The Down Down’s

The pack assembled in the back yard, getting ready for the entertaining program that was about to be delivered.

Abandoned Pussy was the Religious Advisor and likely a group choir.

Once the down down’s were over, there may have been some distractions in the neighbourhood with the football game shenanigans.

All done, the group was declared “on the piss”.

Trail Summary

Looks like a solid 6 km’s according to this summary on Strava.

Hash Extra

Apparently, they have this football thing on Labour Day in which the enemies from Edmonton come to visit the champions from Calgary. The Game ended as it should with the home team defeating the Edmonton squad.

White Dress Run

The Beginning

Another successful White Dress run completed. Slow Clap organized a great charity event with the process going the the Autism Aspergers Friendship Society. Months in the planning, with help from Hot Quickie and Beer in the Rear setting trail.

Thankful for all those that signed up in advance, at the better rate, to help get a handle on the numbers. The later sign up folks paid a small premium for the later sign up. All is good as 26 participants, in White Dress splendor converged on the random parking muddy parking lot close to the railway tracks.

A fine range of white dress finery was on display. Special attention to the accessories and Village Tags that show the investment in the cause.

Here is the fashion show.

Tommy Two Fingers ran the circle and went through announcements and introductions. We had some new boots and archives joining the group.

With our proximity to the train tracks, there were opportunities for the trail conductors to “blow the horn” to acknowledge the group!

Train traffic needed to be worked through

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks for the trail. Two versions available: Green chalk for walkers and Orange chalk for the runners.

Runners marks – follow these and keep on trail

The hare had illuded to a nominal 10 km run for the running bunch, and 6 km for the walkers. See if this was what we actually ran in the summary. Spoiler…. way longer.

The pack is instructed to disperse and find the trail marks. The pack was released in a flurry of white costume.

The Trail

Confusion ran rampant as the pack headed out to find true trail. Of course they went of madly in the wrong direction until the true trail was figured out.

Along the sidewalks, construction, and many street crossings interfered with the fluid pace of the pack. Eventually, some longer stretches were found to keep the pack moving.

Mount Royal elevation changes were navigated

The the maze of small streets and treed neighbourhoods, the trail unfolded. Eventually, as we descended through Cliff Bungalow, the first stop of the trail was upon us. The Unicorn Pub on 4th street SW was a welcome break from the first leg of the trail.

The beer was good but we were informed that time was up and we have to get back on trail if we plan to finish the the next leg of the trail.

Leaving the Unicorn Pub, we headed off toward the Elbow River and Lindsay Park over the bridge.

The packed headed over toward the Stampede grounds to see if they could entertain the security guards that considered the white dressed runners some sort of invasion.

We observed the Cirque do Soleil tent under construction as well as other projects as this part of down is being reconstructed. Artwork by the entrance to the convention centre apparently has some connection to Snevil’s daughter.

The walkers found a photo opportunity not to be missed.

Close to Macleod Trail, the regroup vehicle was spotted and we could enjoy more parking lot refreshments.

Much mirth and merriment were enjoyed as hashers were reveling in the joy of the run and the beer they were drinking at this second stop of the trail.

A group shot for the charity group was taken to prove that we were there and all dressed up!

Group picture – Charity is Autism Aspergers Friendship Society

From the parking lot, the pack was released once again to go and find the trail. The East Village and downtown were beckoning.

With the next pub in site, the group was excited to have another refreshment opportunity at the other Unicorn Pub on 7th ave SW.

A fine time was had at stop 3, but it was eventually time to go and find the end of the trail. Enthusiasm for following true trail was waning for some, but others charged on to rack up the big km’s. Ultimately, we end up back in the parking lot where we started and prepared for down down’s.

Time for down down’s. The group formed something like a circle and the Religious Advisors were chosen as Booty Camp for the walkers, and Hump the Shark for the runners.

A choir of Camshaft and Shakesbeer were chosen to provide the songs for the down down’s.

Down Down’s continued until they were done. A bit difficult to follow but successfully completed. The On In was declared to be Craft Brewing for those that needed more refreshments. A fine time was had by one and all.

On the piss.

31 Ave SW, Calgary, AB

RA: Lying Sack of Shit

Attendance: 14

The River runs High!

The Beginning

August long weekend is a great time for a holiday or to be out of town. As such, finding a hare to volunteer to host this holiday afternoon event is sometimes a challenge. Thankfully, Liquor Lots succumbed to the pressure to host the run, and start/finish at her fancy house.

Keeping with the tradition of rain, rain and more rain, the trail was wet. I am sure that some folks are happy with the wet and soggy ground, but others are concerned that too much rain can be a problem. Not a problem if you like to harvest mushrooms on your front lawn, but some who live near the Elbow River remember the flood of 2013.

An afternoon run saw 12 intrepid hashers brave the wetness to show up for the run. Circle up in the backyard, waiting for the rain to pour down in earnest enjoying Jell-O shooters to mentally prepare for the run.

Looks the Hashmasters were not to be seen as On-In stepped up to run the circle. The group formed up in the alley behind the house and started to get ready for the afternoon trail.

After the pleasantries, On In called the hare into the circle to explain the marks.

Gravel is perfect for making chalk marks!

With all the marks fully described, the pack was released to find the true trail.

The Trail

With the abundance of alleys, streets and pathways in the Erlton neighbourhood, the pack was afoot. Marks were called and the pack joined in following the marks to great viewpoints and interesting terrain.

More pathways and weather to contend with at the run progressed. The hash likes it wet, so this is a great thing!

And then it was done. The hash assembled in the rain protected garage shelter perfect for down down’s. It look like lots of chairs were present and the hash jammed in to the confined space for more fun and frolic.

Down Down’s

The pack set up and mingled in the shelter of the garage.

Lots of space. Can even plug my electric car in here!

The pack got cozy in the garage anticipating a great finish from the Religious Advisor, Lying Sack of Shit.

Eventually, it was time to get the down down’s started. Lying Sack of Shit chose a choir and it was time to get rolling.

To the hares for setting a fantastic trail. No bitching about the light attendance or the shitty weather. Great sports and they are welcome to set trail many times in the future!

This is serious. What a fantastic trail!

A parade of down down’s followed with most guilty of some offence or another misgiving.

Apparently, someone wore new shoes to the hash. You would think they would learn, but , at the discretion of the RA, swilling from your new shoes is appropriate. Lazy Cummer is much smarter now.

An epic afternoon run that was enjoyed by all that were there, Your scribe, Skewbic Hair, had to live vicariously through the pictures and notes he was provided the write this up in absentia.

Beach life in Grand Beach , MB is spectacular.

Trail Summary

A fine trail of some 6 km was enjoyed by the pack. The great neighbourhoods and interesting terrain made it very enjoyable. Great work by the hares!

RA: Rubber Maid

Attendance: 37

The Beginning

Annual Stampede event was a campout in Wayne, Alberta home of the Rosedeer Hotel and the Last Chance Saloon. Camping in the Alberta badlands!

A Full Moon Run on Friday evening, with the main event happening on Saturday afternoon.

The group with camping gear started arriving on Thursday to get the good spots. Camping for one or two lights depending on your desire. Some even booked rooms at the prestigious Roedeer Hotel.

A drive of about an hour and a half through the scenic countryside of Alberta, with impressive vista’s of the badlands.

With 30 plus signed up for the event, the campground filled up with our group.

Full Moon Run

A Full Moon Run was organized by Rashy and Stoolie. They set trail and then fed us with wonderful hot dogs. Not a lot of pictures, but here are a couple that illustrate what a great time the walkers had.

The Saturday trail was set by Pyro, Tommy Two Fingers and Camshaft. Epic views were had as we challenged the badlands. The pack assembled for the two o’clock start after sampling the Full Steam Lager sourced from Valley Brewing in Drumheller.

It was a hot day and it was difficult to keep up the pace. Here is a memorable false trail with a view.

The bushwacking and steep climbing made for a fun time.

Look at what was collected on trail. Spikey things and grass that was like little knives.

The river crossing was quite refreshing. The high turbidity brown water was a nice touch, and the muddy shores were interesting. Shoe sucking shiggy comes to mind.
