What we’re about
Our main goal/ mission is to explore as many wonderful hikes/ snowshoe trails, snowboarding, skiing, hut trips, camping, backpacking, spelunking, canyoneering, etc.,as well as general socializing, restaurants/pubs/taverns as possible in a safe and responsible manner, so that members can get a greater sense of all that Colorado has to offer and enjoy. Some of these we have experienced before, but many will be new to us as well.
Come join us!

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Weekly Walk and Talk-o (Tacos + Walking) *Start at Agave Taco Bar*Agave Taco Bar, Denver, CO
*START AT AGAVE TACO BAR*
Join me for a walk around one of Denver’s best parks, Washington Park.We’ll meet at Agave at 6:30pm (it’s always 6:30pm even if meetup says different) and walk over to the park. We will meet in front 2217 E Mississippi Ave, Denver, CO 80210.
We’ll walk around the park one time and return to South Gaylord. Total round trip is about 3.5 miles. *if you have reflective gear or lights, please wear it. It's getting dark out earlier and earlier. It will help with lighting the path and also making us visible to cars.
Walkers who want to have Tacos can go to Agave Taco Bar for delicous tacos.
If you choose to stay for tacos, please be prepared to order food or drink and tip our servers.The feedback from the group has been to walk or at least get talk-o's every week no matter the weather. #coloradostyle
Some important things to note:- Remember the golden rule folks. Treating others with kindness, respect, honesty, patience, and curiosity is important.
- We share the golden rule with folks not in our group by sharing the trail in the park. Please walk in two’s so that our non- walk- talk-o people have plenty of space on the trail too. If somehow someone forgets and starts walking in 3 or 4 across, say we’ll remind each other kindly. Say "Taco” and squeeze in so that the person can get by us easily.
- Please pay attention to oncoming pedestrians and pedestrians behind us. Please squeeze in to the right when you see them, leaving them plenty of room to pass. We want everyone to enjoy the trail (including folks not in our group) - and not have to dodge our group. Let’s remind each other to “taco" not "tostada."
- We love fur-babies. Before bringing them consider whether your dog is great on leash, behaves well in a crowd, can keep up with our pace, and will distract or add to our group members’ experience.
- You must RSVP This is for safety. If for some reason you can’t RSVP, the group leader will take your picture and a picture of your ID and send it to the other group leaders. It’s up to the group leader if you can participate.
We can be a big group which we love! Please do your part to help us with sharing the trail so that don’t need to limit the number of attendees. If you have suggestions, thoughts, concerns, or ideas for fun activities please let us know.
I also organize another community SUPPER CLUB. We have a couple different events during the month. To learn more visit: SUPPER Club: Foodies for Personal and Professional Growth | Facebook
