Want to get out of the city and up into the hills, meet some new friends, get some exercise, and have some fun? Then come along!

This group is for anyone who likes hiking for fun and exercise and wants to meet others who do as well. And although we do love to hike, we're also drawn to some of the more random non-hiking activities that downtown/greater LA and its surrounding areas have to offer. So keep an eye out for the occasional totally odd social outing, such as Mexican Wrestling at the Mayan, Women's Roller Derby near Echo Park, or one of the many great cultural activities LA has to offer.

We hike mostly on Wednesday evenings, and weekends, and mostly close to downtown/greater LA. That means a lot of Griffith Park and the Hollywood Hills, though occasionally we'll head farther afield for some longer and/or tougher hikes.

Random social events can and do occur pretty much any time. I'll try to post events as early as possible so we can figure out details like getting tickets and such ASAP. If you know of any particular hike or interesting random event that you want to suggest to the group, by all means let me know!

Lastly, we're not a "hard core" hiking group. We believe that having fun, socializing, and making new friends while hiking is just as important as getting some good exercise, so don't expect any sprints to the destination or death marches here. And dogs are always welcome (except in prohibited areas) on our hikes.

So get off that couch, get outside, and come join us for some exercise and FUN! :)
