Location

A forest near Nebi Samuel, West Bank, Israel. Nebi Samuel is the traditional Arabic name for the prophet Samuel who is buried there with his father Elkanah and his mother Hanah. We'll see if this hash is holy enough to qualify.

Participants

Yosef

Plans

Take the bus to a point near the mausoleum. Explore the mausoleum, pray, read from the Book of Samuel and then go on to the hash.

Expedition

Everything went as planned. I stopped at the Mausoleum, prayed and read chapters from the book of Samuel and then hiked out to hashpoint. I then walked back to the highway and followed the highway back to Ramot, Jerusalem where I took a bus to the Jerusalem Central Station.

Education: Israelis have cars with Israeli license plates.
Education: Palestinians have cars with Palestinian license plates.
Here are the villages on the other side of the fence: the Bible calls this area Giv'on, the Arabs decided to be creative with that name and call it Jib because Levantine Arabs can't say 'g'. In other news they also can't say 'p'.
Here I am at the hashpoint.

Achievements

This was about 400 meters away from a holy hash. Not holy enough.
