Another one of those exotic, remote hash clubs, now experienced. What an amazing time we had with the Himalayan H3 today. The start location was over an hour away, well out on the outskirts of the city in the shadows of the Dollu Monastery, and we managed to find it without complication (must be our superior trail tracking ability (not). Once the pack eventually gathered up, the hares explained that the trail was supposed to be over 8Kms. Unfortunately, after all the climbing, and false trails that the hares set, we ended up a little short. It was a bit chilly here today, luckily with the exception of a 20 minute beer stop / hash hold, we kept it moving and stayed warm enough. The remote site of the trail just happened to be in conjunction with the Nepal Sports Festival going on this weekend, and trail actually crossed over the afternoon Mountain Bike race, that finished at the beer stop. The morning had a 20Km race, and other events. Anyway, from the beer check, it was all down hill. The end had plenty of delicious tasty treats, and the usual assortment of cold beer and cider. Circle was a raucous affair, keeping the pack of 20+ in check. Somehow I managed to score the Hashit (voting was totally rigged), but that's OK, just more beer for me. :) Once the festivities were over, about half the pack stopped about halfway back to town for an On On On of local delicacies (Buffalo, vegetable soup, compressed rice, and other veggie dishes). We also washed it all down with the Nepalese version of those Korean favorites "Soju and Makgeolli (rice wine)." As the sun was over the horizon, and the temp was dipping, my ass got cold and we had to make our way back to the hotel. In the end, it was a most amazing hash outing. Many thanks to the whole H4 pack for the hashpatility and good times. If you get the chance, you should definitely put the Himalayan H3 on your bucket list. https://www.relive.cc/view/vXOnEX8Lm5vRead more
