Sanaa Hash (March, 2010)

The Sana'a Hash meets at different points around Sanaa every Monday afternoon at 4:15. We drive as a convoy to a nearby location and hike, inevitably climbing a steep mountain side at some point. The views from the top usually make the climb worthwhile.

Few of the traditional Hash customs are followed: a bottle of water is offered at the end, but no alcohol. There is no on-on, so people tend to disperse afterwards. It is always set by the same person (a former Yemeni army captain), who knows lots of different places to explore within the Sanaa security perimeter (I’ve never been on exactly the same Hash twice). Occasionally weekend trips are arranged, (but the Hash does not help foreign Hashers get the required security forms (tasreiyah).
