Shot Near

Also known as: SN

Trail Terms

Shot Near (marked as SN on trail) is a trail marking that indicates a shot check is approaching. Similar to Beer Near, it alerts the pack that alcohol is nearby — but in this case, shots or spirits rather than beer.

How It Works

  • The hare places SN marks on trail as the route approaches a shot stop
  • Hashers should prepare themselves for something stronger than the usual beer check
  • Shot checks are often placed at memorable or challenging points on trail
