This group is for hiking and exploring the many amazing and beautiful trails in the Front Range area. While many hiking Meetup groups exist already, I find often that hikes are full and/or are not offered as much as I'd like to hike. So- this group will focus on offering great weekend hikes, and also midweek hikes. This not a competitive hiking group. This is not a singles group. If you love to hike and simply enjoy the beautiful area in which we live, this is your group!
