The View From The Hill

The Beginning

Blue Balls volunteered to set trail on a warm summer evening. He has a number of routes in the Signal Hill area that test our ability to find trail and experience both uphill and downhill.

Starting from Buffalo Bob’s Pub, a familiar place for the hash, we gathered in the parking lot to prepare for the trail.

The group started to form something that looked like a circle as they chatted and discussed recent events.

Booty Camp ran the circle as both Insane Bolt and Camshaft were out of town.

With the circle formed, we had a special announcement to acknowledge the recent passing of Whale Wanker, (Tom Wheeler) a veteran Calgary Hash House Harrier. He will be missed by the group.

Booty Camp went through the circle formalities and called the hare into the circle to describe the marks.

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

The Trail

Out of the parking lot, the pack headed North to find a check indicating a change of direction. Madly off in all directions, eventually the trail was found.

Over Sarcee Trail to catch a view of the traffic as we head over toward Signal Hill.

Following our uphill and downhill experience, the end of the trail was in sight. The view of the regroup vehicle was a welcome sight.

With a private room in the back, we headed over to Buffalo Bob’s to do the down down’s inside.

Down Downs

On In was the Religious Advisor for the evening. He prepared his program and the beverages for the cerimony.

On In started the program by appointing a choir of Hardly, Snow Blower and Daisy Duke.

The first down down was for the hare, Blue Balls for setting a great trail. Well marked with great views. A little light on playgrounds, but the uphill and downhill made up for this.

A down down for the new boot, Penny Joe.

Down Down for the RA, and a volunteer for next week!

With the down down’s complete, it was time to enjoy the company and refreshments.

The Beginning

Thanks to Booty Camp and Snow Blower for stepping up to set the first trail in March 2025. Starting from Buffalo Bob’s Sports Bar in the SW, in the Glenbrook, Glendale neighbourhoods. The private room in the bar was reserved and we were set for the evening.

The weather shifted for the Monday run, where we had sustained above freezing temperatures, a dusting of snow and around freezing temperatures made the footing interesting.

The enthusiastic group turned out in good numbers as we prepared for the run at the bar.

We were called to the circle by Insane Bolt and headed outside to the cold and dark.

Insane Bolt called the group to order and went through an abbreviated version of the formalities.

The hares were called into the circle to describe the marks we had follow to enjoy the trail.

The pack was released and off we went to find the marks. Some confusion with running through the shopping area and industrial building before we ultimately found our way forward.

Through the streets, alleys and pathways the trail wound through the neighbourhoods.

Some gems were found on the pathways, with a snow person appearing, freshly made.

A bit icy and crunchy as the temperatures went down.

More trail until the next playground. Careful with the footing!

Eventually we made it to the regroup, with Booty Camp protecting the deep puddle from the oblivious hashers.

Off to the pub to get set up for down downs.

The Down Down’s

At Buffalo Bob’s, we had a private room at the back. Good set up for the group as we got settled and ordered beer and food.

Eating and drinking done well

The religious advisor for the evening was Skewbic Hair. Dispensing with photo duties to Liquor Lots, a choir was chosen and the ceremonies commenced.

The choir of Roaring Nancy and Karate Klit were rewarded with down down’s, sang themselves a song to begin the program.

Choir getting ready!

Down down’s for the hares, leading into other crimes and offences being rewarded.

Hash shit was awarded to Insane Bolt for forgetting to do the introductions at the opening circle. He was able to hand it off to a hasher of his choice, and selected Camshaft.

A round of the camel song showed a good understanding of anatomy.

Some confusion on body parts

Mmmm Lady Fingers was rewarded with a down down for achieving 269 runs.

With all material exhausted, we were declared to be “on the piss”, with a down down to the RA!

Trail Summary

A fine trail of 6.66 km’s, a devilish distance. Limited slips and crashes made this an enjoyable run!
