SNAKE MOUNTAIN, LONG HAI
Hares: Secs, Chippy, Mr. T, Have-A-Chat
Hash Flashers: Chippy, Have-A-Chat
Ringmaster: NA
Report: Chom Chom
Sunday was with us once again. Hashers arrived at our fabulous new home at Nang Vung Tau. Whilst Mr. T and Reado the Weardo completed the registration, ice was being loaded into the pre-loaded eskies of water, soft drinks and Saigon Chill Premium Beer. Together with all the other hash essentials, everything got loaded onto the regular Hashmobile and our hashers duly boarded for the off.

This week we had 43 Hashers, so a comfortable bus journey. With the usual cheerful chatter, together with discussions and shock about this week's highest viewed video on Facebook, we soon arrived at our starting destination in Long Hai.

Once we all alighted, Secs explained the trail ahead, some 6-7km allegedly. It all sounded a bit scary as we looked ahead as the mountain shadowed down onto us. After the great trail at Long Dien last week, Hashers knew things were back to the norm. Steep mountains with the usual same-same "spectacular" views - you can't please everyone. But anyway, cheerful or not, it was On On...

Generally our trails start with the up and end on the downs, making it more challenging with the initial hotter weather. Today was a perfect example - surprisingly clear and burning heat as we commenced the climb. With Hashers taking their time, frequent breaks and many desperate for a drop of water from their already depleted iced water, we all eventually made it up.

Once we thought we had got to the top, our Hares Mr. T and Secs were waiting to guide us a little bit further up the mountain to fully appreciate what is known as Snake Mountain and its spectacular views. I was feeling a bit lazy and felt on this occasion I would forfeit the "million dollar" view for a shorter journey back. I'm sure the photos will show whether the view was a "million dollar" one or not!

Coming down was equally as challenging although to be a little bit more positive, it had cooled down somewhat. We were faced with the construction of a new road going through the mountain. This was quarry style with great drops where Hashers had to navigate their way down boulders, avoiding the gaps and big drops. It would have been a great assault course round on The Krypton Factor. At least it wasn't raining!

By some miracle, every single hasher eventually made it back to the Ngọc Xương Resort without any serious wounds or injuries. In the dusk we enjoyed our banh mi's and watermelon, together with the super-cold soft drinks and Saigon Chill Premium Beer. As it was getting dark, we reluctantly had to
postpone Have-a-Chat’s legendary circle, however we did manage a group photo in the dark.

A pleasant trip back on the return journey to Vung Tau, with good conversation and a new selection of selected tunes, all wrapped up with more even-colder Saigon Chill. A few more drinks were had back at Nang Vung Tau after unloading the remains and the other supplies. Another great Sunday
afternoon.
