We are a hiking and backpacking group. Can anyone join? No. I found this group to have a smaller, cozier group with my friends that we can do some fast adventures up in the mountains. If you want to join come backpacking or hiking with us through the New York Backpackers group on meetup. http://backpackers.meetup.com/113 I can't let anyone in if I haven't met that person before and we have never hiked together. You must have hiked with me at least once or with one of our assistant organizers …

If you love the outdoors or think you might, welcome!

And, of course, to have fun while doing it! Check out our photo album to see some of our fun and exciting past meetups. I encourage anyone who has a favorite outdoor activity to share that with the group - there are as many activit …

We are a laid back, friendly group of backpackers. Our primary focus is on over night and multi-day trips but we do have an occasional day hike or happy hour. A typical trip with us is planned out by the organizer of the event in terms of trail, meeting place, mileage per day but we also like to go with flow. In other words a hike with us will not be extremely regimented and inflexible. We love talking about gear, trails, recipes... anything backpacking. This group welcomes both veterans and beg …

This group formed out of the desire to share the wonderful experiences of outdoor activities with the children and youth in our lives. Not only to enrich the lives of those younger than us; but to enrich our lives as caretakers as we re-experience the outdoor activities we love with those we love. The vast majority of outdoor groups do not organize kid/youth-suitable meetups but many folks have younger ones and would love to bring them. Some of us spend every weekend with theirs, others alterna …

I am a vegan and I am an outdoors person. I love sleeping under the stars in the middle of nowhere and hanging out by a fire grilling vegetables. I have for years led adventures all around the world and the one thing that has lacked has been other vegans or even vegetarians. Very few in the five years I have been organizing outdoor trips. I love to hike, mountaineer, raft, ice climb, backpack, cross-country ski, you name it and I want to meet other vegans and vegetarians who share my love for ad …

This is a social meet-up group. All are welcome.  I found that I enjoyed setting up events designed around having fun and enjoying what life has to offer.  I found meetup groups that offered events for singles or  couples or  single parents but not for everyone. Many of my friends are single  while others are couples, some with, and some without kids. So I have designed a group for everyone. If you are single or married, with a family or a single parent, all are welcome to join in our adventures …

I'm setting this up initially for those of us who are experienced hikers and looking to do longer hikes with other like-minded LGBT folks.

Here are some great resources to find local hikes. http://midatlantichikes.com/ http://www.hikingupward.com www.Localhikes.com Check other meetup.com groups. If you're new to hiking, I …
