From the hares' description at the start the route sounded a bit complicated, but it wasn't. In simple terms the run/walk could be divided into two parts:
Part A - Up
Part B - Down
Simple!
The runners' trail took them to the summit; the walkers' around a circuit on the lower slopes. We thought we'd lost a couple at the finish - so it was good to see them appearing through the woods. They hadn't been eaten by koala bears....
Once again Superhacker and her team produced a ribfilling and tasty feast. Thanks, hares!
Hardcore is becoming a mature married lady next weekend, and she anticipated this important event with a down, down at the on, on. We wish her many more.
The other big event this coming weekend is, of course, Samford Hash's 21st Birthday Run! Remember: our start time - for this week only - will be 4 pm, to give us a bit more time to party!
Some of our members have been busy producing a Hash vintage from vineyards at Clear Mountain and Cedar Creek. What will the result be? Wine, or vinegar? Here are a few shots of the process....
The harvest:

Trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored:
Highly scientific hydrometer reading:
Sampling the juice: Will it ever be drinkable again?
The winemakers:
