ZH3 Hash # 1659: The Other Neck of the Woods Hash

It's hot, it's sweaty, the masses are running to the water and you don't want to drown in someone else's piss? Why look no further and cum unto Slippery Digit's neck of the woods just around the zoo!

Best part, start all the way uphill already, no hard climbs, just the sweet cooling effects of nature's forests. Expect a trail nearly universally protected by the shade of trees, absolutely not a single amateur slack liner or beach volleyball enthusiast and some of Zurich's COLDEST beer to be available.

On-after TBD.

Where:
Bag drop AND meeting point will be a vehicle parked in/on/around/within Sorrell Hotel Zurichberg, just up the street from the Terminal Stop of Tram nr 6, the Zoo.

When:
We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm.

There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.

All Welcome:
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
• Physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humor is useful.
• The aim is to find the 'Beer Stop' at the end of the 'trail' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running) and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The 'Hare', which changes each event, cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• After Trail, we group for ~30-45 minutes for drinks, snacks and some fun. This 'Circle' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark).

Why bother leaving your warm sofa?
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing.

'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (Hashs) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - or you can just come along and find out. See you there.

We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.
