What we’re about
This group was created to gather like-minded people who share the same goals: challenge themselves, explore nature, and get fit doing it! The events will be covering a range of hikes from beginner trails, to more advanced so there will be a hike for everyone. The group is really focused on conquering some peaks and more difficult hikes, so if you're looking to challenge yourselves along with us, we welcome you! Our hikes will explore trails all over Southern California. We will do hikes in Orange County, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, San Diego, and more!
We have a very diverse group of people, ranging in all ages and from all different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. We are a very welcoming group, so please come and join us whether it's for a great hike or community.
Pace Expectations: Flat and even ground: 3mph; Hills and rocky terrain: 2-2.5mph (Average). Please come to our hikes with this in mind. If you're looking for a fast paced, fitness hike, we may not be the right group for you. There are many other groups more focused on this. We stop and regroup at all trail junctions, unless otherwise noted. Please respect these expectations.
If you enjoy Trail Mix and the hikes we go on, a donation would be very much appreciated to help cover annual organizational fees and for time donated to keep this group fun and active!
This is a no drop, no person left behind group. We want everyone to feel welcome. The goal with this meetup is to hike as a group.
