Trail: This was effectively trail 1173 in reverse direction, so dismounted Hashmobile at end of main sealed mountain road near signpost for Hang Mai pagoda. Chalk Talk by Secs reminded everyone to wait for live hares if lost or unsure of direction. Walked up and around big lake then crossed fast-flowing stream into jungle. Followed mostly muddy trail with small streams and pools until final aggressive stream for ‘full circle’ back to main road and Down Down opposite nuoc mia stalls. Total distance ~4-5km.”
Highlights:

• Hashers helping each other across the deeper streams and pools.
  
• 4 uni students giving welcome help for Hashers to navigate submerged rocks across the last (and deepest) fast-flowing stream.
  
• Sticky rice and chicken in banana leaf wrap and biscuits courtesy Ms Kim; apple tart slices courtesy Bishop.
