Three things I got tired of hearing from folks:
1. “None of my friends are into backpacking! So I have nobody to go with.”
2. “None of my backpacking friends are available to go when I’m free!”
3. “I love the outdoors, but I don’t know anybody who can help me get into backpacking!”
Assuming that the above is true (and not due to bad breath, personal hygiene issues, or offensive personality traits) all you really need is some new friends who backpack! ;-) You have come to the right place! Relax and take a deep breath!
Backpacking is what we do! Check out our Message Board and Calendar. Look at our trip photos. We have some awesome, experienced trip leaders and instructors. We have several events per month. Come out and take a hike!
Click on the Files tab and read the "New Backpacker Orientation" document.
Members of our group will receive special promotional offers from local area outfitters who sponsor our meetup.

Nat Geo's debut of America's Wild Spaces: Appalachian Trail is next Tuesday night and I thought it would be cool to drink a beer (or bourbon in my case) with some fellow AT enthusiasts to enjoy it. Whether you've thru-hiked, done some sections, aspire to hit the AT someday, or just love being out on the trail, please join us for an enjoyable evening. Meetup starts at 7:00, the show starts at 8:00. Read more
