AH3 Event # 2265
Photographers:
MD, FC, WD, SB
Note: From this year, the AH3 have taken over
the organization of the Attache's Arms.
Due to severe erosion of the road, the tent had to be erected in the parking
area.
Setting up the tent, etc.
Adrian
shows the hashers how to erect the tent
The wind made it challenging
WD Checking the hot drinks
SB Ready to serve
The tent - assembled by 11:00 am and ready to serve
Most
of those involved in assembling the tent were keen to go for the walk...
even though there was rain, wind, & mist on the mountain.

The Walk
Setting
off with mixed feelings - remembering how the mountainside was before the
2024 forest fire
Evidence
of further soil erosion.
Only a 4WD vehicle can get up here now
AND BACK DOWN .......
TV poses to show the mist
And so does MD
Evidence that some results of the forest fire are stronger rainwater run-offs

TV comes up for air & then continues
Almost finished
Ahhh! Good to the last drop!
Charity collection
About 125 euros for the charity Aurora. Not bad, considering the weather.
