Louisiana is crawling with cryptids, both on land and in the water, and if you’re going to encounter one, it’s going to be on this trail. Listen for the howl of the rougarou in the forest. Watch out for the letiche lurking in the bayou. Is that a hasher’s flashlight up ahead, or the feu follet trying to lure you to your doom? Is the hare really The Iceman Thumbeth, or the shape-shifting Père Malfait?
Those who disguise themselves as cryptids are safe; otherwise, hash at your own risk.
Bring: $1 (no coins); 6-pack (glass discouraged), whistle, FLASHLIGHT!
