Vancouver Outdoor Walking/Hiking Adventures

General Information:
Welcome to Vancouver Outdoor Walking/Hiking.
This group is for anyone who loves the outdoors.

For the safety and comfort of everyone in the group, all members must have a clear profile photo of themselves. I absolutely love pets and flowers too, but I also want to be able to recognize who I’m meeting at events.

Please avoid:

- Group photos
- Blurry photos
- Distant photos
- Photos with sunglasses covering your face

Profiles without a clear face photo may be removed until updated. This is simply for safety reasons and helps create a more comfortable environment for everyone.

Also, please take the time to answer the membership questions thoughtfully. One-word answers usually won’t be accepted. If you’re new to Vancouver or hoping to meet new people, feel free to say so. We’d love to get to know you a little better 😊

We will focus on walks and hikes in and around the city. All hikes will range from easy to difficult. Please make sure that you sign up based on your fitness level.

• Easy hikes will have little distance and little to no elevation change, less than 100. (2 hours or less)
• Medium hikes will contain some distance with some elevation changes of 100 meters to 500 meters (2 to 4 hours)
• Difficult hikes will contain many elevation changes of 500 meters or more (5 to 8 hours)

Please make sure you bring the essentials with you. You will not be permitted to join in any further hikes if you do not bring it with you or you are not prepared.

Transportation:

• Transit-Friendly Hikes (with carpooling option): These Hikes will be transit-accessible, and you will have the option to carpool. If you are driving and want to offer rides, please sign up using the Google Sheets that I provided. If you want to get a ride, please sign up under the driver if there is space. Please pay them the gas money depending on how much your driver is charging.
• Non-Transit Friendly Hikes: These hikes will only be accessible via car. If you are willing to give people a ride, please put your name in the google sheets. If you need a ride, please sign your name underneath your driver and contact them.
  • Evo Car Share: This is a wonderful way of commuting and carpooling if you do not have a car. Please e-transfer your driver $28 for the Evo. I will be using this mode of transportation when we do these types of hikes

***Please Note: Smoking is strictly NOT permitted during at any point of the event. ***

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone and enjoying the outdoors Vancouver has to offer!

Thanks
-Richard and Mia (Organiser as of 2023)
