The Beginning

Slow Clap and Karate Klit stepped up to set trail out of Griffith Wood Park in the SW community of Discovery Ridge. With an extensive trail system and proximity to wilderness, chances of a critter sighting were good.

Beaver, Moose, Cougar all live nearby! We were forewarned that there may be some shiggy and dry shoes were recommended.

The pack assembled in the Eastern parking lot in the and prepared for an epic trail.

Insane Bolt ran the circle. The pack listened intently as Insane went through the announcements and introductions.

The hares were called into the circle to explain the marks for this evening’s trail.

The hares pointed the direction for the start of the run. The pack was released.

Eventually, the trail ended at the starting parking lot. A fine selection of suitable beverages was on offer.

The pack got their chairs and refreshments together and prepared for the outside down down’s.

The Down Down’s

Strap On Crampon volunteered to the the Religious Advisor. She assembled her material and conferred with others to come out with a program.

Insane Bolt and Dastardly prepared the refreshments as we got ready for the down down’s.

Tragedy stuck as a moment of inattention created a spilled beer. So sad to see this type of problem prior to the down down’s. OPP was sad but was able to find a suitable replacement. To add insult to injury, Scoobie managed to spill additional beer while getting a picture of the crime.

Enough distraction, the down down’s were called to order. A choir of Booty Camp and Skewbic Hair were selected. They sang themselves a song and handed off the photographer duties to Mucky Dip.

The hares were called up and thanked for their outstanding trail.

Apparently, on trail, the walkers were being stalked by a large animal. No interest in the hashers by the moose. Mucky Dip took the picture!

Apparently, Skewbic Hair made the mistake of touching the Hat Shit. The group was aghast at this oversite, and Scoobie paid the price. He even chose to drink out of the hat…. Much cleaner now!

With all the material delivered, it was time to thank our RA for a fine job of conducting the down down ceremony. With a quick down down, we were declared “on the piss”.

Will done in the parking lot, there was some discussion of a “follow on” at the Wild Rose Brewery! A fine evening was had by one and all.

Trail Summary

The trail was somewhere between 5 and 7 km’s depending on how much short cutting or false trails were enjoyed! Great trail!

Hash Extra

Lots of pictures were taken on trail. Here are a few more that were shared by the keen photographers.
