Location

Hay field North of Sacramento.

Participants

Plans

Get as close to the hash as possible, take photos, scare the natives, and then away to the party! This should be interesting, as I will be in full Burning Man Playa Gear; that is to say, a blue cat ear scoodie, fluffy furr coat, scarf skirt, fluffy blue tail, and blue and black striped tights.

Expedition

This was one of the more creepy hashes I have ever done. It was really dark, there were no street lights, the road was a steep levee with no guard rails on either side. I stopped, put my flashers on, and took a couple photos. I didn't get out, but I think the whole area was fenced and gated, so it was an even bigger no-go than just dark and rural. Creeeeepy!

Photos

Aforementioned costume, for reference only
So close, yet so far away!
Could not see jack diddly
Slightly more than jack diddly
