How To Follow the Trail

What is Hashing?

Hashing is a mixture of athletic activity, socializing, and puzzle solving. One or more members (the "Hares") lay a trail of flour, chalk, or toilet paper through woods, streets, alleys, and parks.

The rest of the pack (the "Harriers" and "Harriettes") try to follow the trail, solve checks, and find the end where beer, water, and snacks await.

It is not a race! The trails are intentionally designed with false trails, checks, and loops so the fast runners run further and search, allowing the walkers and joggers to catch up.

  • Dry Clothing: Bring a dry set of clothes and clean shoes for the "On-After" hangout (optional).
  • Open Mind: A willingness to have fun and enjoy a bit of lighthearted humor.

How to Join

  • No RSVP or prior registration required. Just find a trail on the calendar and show up!
  • Introduce yourself to the Hares or Joint Masters as a newcomer ("virgin").
  • You will be assigned a temporary guide to help you learn the trails.
  • Join the circle at the end for traditional songs, toasts, and awards.
