Make Boxer Great (Wall) again!
Boxer hashers may remember we went to Great Wall in April, Mutianyu Great Wall, that was a nice trail–as you can see from the above picture😋☝🏻. And now, let`s make boxer Great Wall again–we are going to the most dangerous part of Beijing`s Great Wall—Jiankou.
Among the winding and steep mountains, the extreme of “three dangers in the suburbs of Beijing” is the Jiankou Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty. As it looks like an arrow buckled on a bow full of strings, so named. Jian means arrow, Kou means buckle. Jiankou Great Wall is the most complex and dangerous section of all the Great Walls in Beijing, and it is also the section with the best scenery.
“万里长城万里长”，在这蜿蜒峻岭隐苍茫之中，“京郊三险”之最莫过于建于明代的箭扣长城，因为形似一支箭扣在一把满弦的弓上而得名。箭扣长城是北京所有长城中，山势最复杂、最危险，也是风光最好的一段。

The Beijing boxer hash is an off-road running hash going out to the hills around Beijing once/twice a month. We usually aim for the second/third Saturday of each month, but may vary depending on the hares’ availability and other variable factors we have zero control over. Be prepared for variable weather conditions: snow, ice, heatwave, storms.
We’re a running hash. It’s ok to walk but not to lallygag. Keep moving… Heart attacks are not permitted. As we are out on mountain trails, it’s easy to get lost. Please bring a phone with you! We may or may not send a search party looking for you. If we do, chances are it will consist primarily of rabid dogs and hungry wolves. That being said, we are glad to have you join us and hope you enjoy a great day! (by the way, no you won’t be back for your important dinner date bring them along instead)
