The hash last night was at a site most frequented by the ladies hash. Great jungle with miles and miles of trails and packed with hills. Most of the experienced hares know this area very well and last night's was laid by one of them. Twenty minutes into the run we were faced by this steep climb as the final leg of the climb up to the ridge. Unfortunately the picture looks like it's a gentle slope but is was pretty steep and I won't repeat the words I said when I first saw it ahead of me. We were rewarded with a gentle cool breeze up the top and helped me cool down but not for long before we went down again, repeating the sequence till the final ascent out.
Sadly word is out that we may loose access to this wonderful jungle in the near future. The jungle borders an area designated to foreign embassies and we park our cars and set up shop on the vacant roads. The ones currently there don't mind hashers and walkers but the one embassy planning to build is of a nation whose security policy is of paramount importance and most probably won't be so accommodating.
