"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings." ~ John Muir

Meet with people who are interested in mountaineering, backcountry skiing/snowboarding, alpine climbing, rock climbing, trekking, backpacking, or simply day-hiking in the mountains. Whether you are currently training for a climb, planning your next one, or just looking to get into the sport, this is a great way to meet people of all experience levels. We do a mix of local meetups as well as trips all around the state.

There are so many great mountains in California... let's go!

  “I would LOVE to get better skills for backcountry. I enjoy snowboarding, snowshoeing, snow camping...basically all things snow. I used to climb Tallac, Shasta, etc...but am not longer "with" the person who took me...need to meet fellow climbers.”

  “Finding great climbing partners is a challenge, so it's awesome this group exists. My ultimate goal is Denali (for now)...in 4 or 5 years. It would be great to find people with similar goals to train and practice skills with. Thanks!”
