The Seattle Backpackers Meetup Group“ We had a great time and Cameron was an excellent host. Really laid back trip with just enough work to make it enjoyable. And the payoff was great. This was my first trip with Cameron and Wayne so let me spread the word now. If you guys (and gals) see a hike that they're signed up for, put your name on the list. You won't be disappointed. They're loads of fun. And Raj...thanks for putting up with my snoring. My cold's almost gone... ”

“ Nice group, why join: - to discover activities they have never practised before, they will benefit from other people's skills - even if they have the skills, they might not want to be alone, so it's a way to find people having the same interests as you - it's also a way to find out about nice places and things to do if don't know the area ”

The Seattle Backpackers Meetup Group“ This was my best snowshoe hike for the winter so far. We had the mountain pretty much to ourselves. Heaps of pristine snow. Warm, dry weather with good sunshine. Very nice folks. And one perpetual motion dog. An avalanche chute stopped us from reaching the peak, but we had enough of a workout already breaking trail. Thanks, Jay, for organizing and for picking such a good day. ”
