Hash cash: $7 O2H3 #: 2347 Title: Blue Moon Date: 2026-05-30 Hare(s): Thanks for the Mammaries Trail length (miles): 3.0 Hash meet: 6:00pm Kitcar away: No kitcar Hare away: 6:45 pm Shiggy meter: 6:9 Trail info: Wet feet, Dog friendly Location name: Long Branch Trail Address: South County Road 13 Google Maps link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/HtKAzwHMRa4Ken6u9?g_st=ic Hare notes: The second full moon in a single calendar month is a Blue Moon, it happens approximately every two to three years. Even though this is a full moon trail, most hashers should be done with trail around sunset. So we can enjoy the moon during circle. This trail crosses the long branch of the Econ river at least twice, so expect wet feet. If you love shiggy, pray for rain. Dogs are allowed in the preserve, and Dexter scouted this trail with me. He was covered in mud and stickers, but he loved it! Long Branch is part of a wildlife corridor along the Econlockhatchee River shared with the much larger Hal Scott Regional Preserve and Park to its south. Pieced together from four different parcels of land donated to Orange County's "Green Place" program, Long Branch now comprises almost 285 acres that surround the western portion of its namesake stream, Long Branch, a tributary of the Econlockhatchee River designated an Outstanding Florida Waterway.
