• Seletar H3 #2192

    October 8, 2024 in Singapore ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

    Singapore's third oldest hash, founded in 1980, the Seletar H3 is a men only club. We had a most excellent trail last evening, with a pack of over 50 hashers.

    Trail was just over 5 kms, but due to an unusual situation, I ended up running in circles for a while. About halfway through trail, we hit a check in the middle of an old parking lot. Trail made a long loop to the right, cut through a hole in a fence, then skirted a park just over a grass berm adjacent to the parking lot. It seems that one lucky hasher went over the grass berm and found paper. The rest of the pack followed, and created a path through the grass. Someone dropped a couple pieces of paper to mark the way, thus creating a dooolooop. By the time I came back around after finding the actual way the hares set, I came back to the spot the pack had trampled down, and turned up there, not seeing where they had gone. So after looping around in a bit of confusion, I finally figured it out and was back on track, albeit a long way behind. I eventually passed the walkers, and finished up the trail on my own.

    Singapore has some awesome shiggy trails hidden within the city. There are several old abandoned or torn down areas now covered by jungle overgrowth, so within the jungle there are staircases and various other old structures (lots of trip hazards too).

    The boys had a fun circle, with lots of comradery and singing, and all of the visitors were heartily welcomed. Included in the price of hash cash, was a full on dinner of excellent food catered on site.

    A great day on the hash.
