Most thought it would never happen again. No, we’re not talking about legendary Boxer hasher Well Oiled Dick (aka The Penguin) and his hash mistress In-House Screw‘s return to Beijing for the Boxer. We’re talking about the shocking news that Boxer Hash Mis-Management has commuted the lifelong haring ban that was only handed down to Molotov Cock a few months prior. His was technically a non-violent offense (many would argue otherwise), but he’s actually still on probation, required to hare under Dry Hole‘s supervision and to drink non-fancy Yanjing beer.
The hare’s have picked an ambitious trail: the shockingly beautiful, unmaintained wall at Jiankou. There’s a bit of running and a lot of climbing on this exposed section of the Great Wall that is slowly returning to nature. The running trail is not long, but it does require quite a bit of scrambling. You have been warned. Hash dogs and those less inclined to the steep stuff can still get on the Wall at an alternate point by joining the walking trail. Walkers can venture as high and as far as they like before turning round and heading back down for booze and snacks.
- Hares:
Molotov Cock & Dry Hole - Trail:
Both run and walk are on the “wild” Wall. Run is less than 10km but very steep and technical. If you are afraid of heights, go on the walk. Walkers can venture as far and as high on the Wall as they like, so easier to match to your own comfort level. - When:
Saturday, September 24th, 2016 - Time:
Meet at 10:00 a.m. Departure at 10:30 a.m. sharp! - Hash Cash:
