Santa comes again

It's sad to think that Santa only gets to come once a year, despite showering lots of girls (and boys) with gifts. Our Christmas in July event gave Santa a chance to come again - and to hand out gifts to some pretty questionable girls and boys....

The "Dag and Drag" theme gave hashers of all ages and proclivities plenty of scope. Who'd have thought so many could not only wear drag, but also look outstandingly daggy as they did so?

Here's but a small selection of images, courtesy of various members of the paparazzi. (There's a large gallery of yet more pictures here.)

Christmas dinner.  Where's the beef?

And now a few shots from Santa's grotto:






Remember - there are many more images here!

Our serious partying was preceded by a serious stroll up Mt Lawson.  Leaving Base Camp at Haughty and Culture's, hashers headed up the western face, and then traversed to Camp 1, overlooking the Cedar Creek valley.  Here there was a chance to replenish some precious bodily fluids.  Those who were suffering from altitude sickness turned back at this point, while others roped up for the push to the summit. Congratulations to Nipliquor, who put many of his elders to shame!

All in all, a great night.  Thanks to everyone for their contributions!
