Welcome to Losers Without Friends! This meet up is about Losers. Without Friends. Really. No, seriously. Why don’t you believe me? Oh, okay. Here’s the real scoop: This group is all about doing different fun adventurous type things. I just have a slightly demented sense of humor, and I thought the name was funny. I could have gone all formal with something like “North East County Fun Adventure Group”, but that’s just not how I roll. So LWF it is! Or should it be LWOF? Go to the polls page and vo …

I ran a group like this in DC and I don't really see any organized gay hiking group here, so I'm starting a San Diego chapter. I'm setting this up for those of us who are experienced hikers and looking to do longer hikes/backpacks with other like-minded LGBT folks. There are some great regular hiking groups, but none for gays and lesbians to do 10+ mile hikes and backpacking trips in a social setting. I'm brand new to San Diego and would love it if others would offer up hike ideas or help with l …

If you like outdoors this is the group for you. We will schedule hikes, clinics, movies and let you know about specials in our stores. We came to work at Adventure 16 becasue of our passion for getting outside and love to share it with others.

Our hikes are of intermediate to advanced difficulty. For example going up canyons with and without marked trails, extensive rock scrambling and down climbing often with exposure and with significant elevation gain. We will venture far into remote areas and canyons with geological interest as well as canyons of historical value . Many areas are of significant paleontological and archeological importance and fragility. Only those who will respect and protect them need apply. Gps tracks and/or ide …

*** This group is PRIVATE by invitation only *** Special activities for IWG members. SITE NOT ACTIVE YET!

This is a group for INTERMEDIATE hikers who enjoy hiking, but can not always meet during the day. Setting off before sunset and watching the sun fall below the horizon from high places can make a hike an event. Navigating back down by headlamp allows other senses to sharpen. We frequently do advanced hikes and activities so be prepared and be fit! I hope to see new faces by lamplight. The hikes will be intermediate and advanced with occasional happy hour after. I will also post random weekend ad …

Friends of Outdoor Outreach is about doing fun activities in the San Diego area. This is a place for friends and supporters of Outdoor Outreach to organize together to do what we do best - play outside! And since we can't always play outside, sometimes we'll play inside too.

Our goal is to take you to the point of no return then hopefully empower you to not quit regardless of the level of 'the suck'.  "Adversity builds Character." What does it mean? Defines any situation where conditions are undesirable. Commonly used around a war time conflict by members of the Armed Forces. It sounds like a put-down, but it is actually a testament to the dedication of those who endure it. Also known as “the shit". Can you handle 'the SUCK'!?

YES, we indeed shoot NIKON's for all our DSLR still and DSLR movie productions. We offer world class hands on workshops that act as the vehicle to fund and support young movie makers with the tools, and to provide the essential resources they need to develop their creative ideas from the conceptua …

There are a lot of people in SD County who have ties to the PCT- I was on the Facebook looking at some pictures of PCT'ers in Portland, OR who had a reunion and it got me thinking, "why not here?" In that spirit, I figured it was about time for the local trail community to have a network where we can keep in touch and make plans and do what we oh so covet- BS about the trail. City life is limiting in some capacities and i'll be the first to admit that I don't have as close of a connection with " …
