What we’re about
This group exists to meet and share the wilderness experience with other outdoor enthusiasts. Anyone interested in hiking, backpacking, camping, snowshoeing, winter back-country exploration, winter camping, mountaineering, rock climbing, bouldering, or learning new skills, will find a home here of like-minded individuals.
Activities are organized as appropriate for either all levels, intermediate, or advanced. Certain events have a higher risk level than others so in order to stay safe, it's important to know your limits. Events requiring specialized gear and/or skill sets are always noted. Also, one should always be willing to learn as well as sharing your skills and knowledge with others.
Its' been my experience that when people have fun together outdoors there is a mutual respect that gets earned regardless of differences, so please support one another to make everyone feel welcome and have fun together. Remember, kindness is the only language everyone can understand, so let's communicate with each other in that way.
When we are in nature, we always try to take care of her, so it is standard procedure to pack out everything we pack in. That, and an awareness of leaving a location in better condition than we found it, is always our goal, so let's take the opportunity to do so.
If you have an advanced skill in any particular outdoor activity and are interested in teaching or leading the group in an adventure, please let us know. And, if there is an event that you would like to see happen, by all means suggest it.
If attending a meetup that requires gear, you will have to provide your own, however, resources are available for the asking allowing one to borrow or rent most items.
Look forward to some adventures and hangin out in the wilderness together!
Best Regards,
Elcap
