Mountain Scouting
Source text
Section titled “Source text”This has been played by tourists’ clubs in the Lake District, and is very similar to the “Spider and Fly” game. Three hares are sent out at daybreak to hide themselves about in the mountains; after breakfast a party of hounds go out to find them before a certain hour, say 4 p.m. If they find them, even with field glasses, it counts, provided that the finder can say definitely who it was he spotted. Certain limits of ground must be given, beyond which anyone would be out of bounds, and therefore disqualified.
