Meet other local outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, surfing, etc. This meetup is about enjoying the outdoors with others. I would like others to let me know of activities they would like to see happen and I will help organize. Dog owners are also encouraged to join since there are too few groups that permit dogs at times. All those who are dedicated to outdoor excursions near and far should sign up.

Who doesn't need more active, animal loving women in their lives for hiking, biking and hanging out?   Email me suggestions (and a date and time that work for you) and I'll set up an invite.

The Outlaws are a group of nature-loving outdoor folks who insist on bringing their dogs along. Why hike if I can't bring my dog? is our question. We hike mostly in Marin county, but sometimes East Bay too. Summer overnights and weekend camping trips to National Forest destinations. Swimming, BBQ, hiking, fetch, fun.

The goal of this group is to get as many people in the Contra Costa County to leave the couch, get out and hike, bike, walk the beautiful trails that we have around us; hopefully meeting once or twice a month.

The group is also open to suggestions if anyone wants to hike a particular trail.

Weekend hiking with the canine companion(s) and socializing with other hikers in the community. One doesn't have to be a dog owner to be a member; just someone who likes hanging around dogs and the outdoors. Since I'm still learning the area, I will be posting dog-friendly hiking trails from www.bahiker.com, but other suggestions are welcome and encouraged. My partner and I have a senior Corgi, so most hikes will be low-key and fall within beginner-to-intermediate levels. The majority of the hi …

We like to do afternoon walks/urban hikes mostly on week-ends and then go to happy hour. Walks usually start at 12 or 1 at a public transporation friendly starting point and end around 5 or 6 in time for happy hour.  Happy hour is optional and non-drinkers are welcome.  Some of our walks are dog friendly and when possible we will try to find a dog friendly happy hour.  Sometimes, we just go to happy hour or a wine bar.  We also like movies/films and we may schedule some film events as well.

Let's face it, we all could use more playtime, whether you're a dog or human, and our dogs can never get too much socialization and exercise.  It's in their nature to want to be social, and more active they are, healthier they will be (mentally and physically), same goes for us humans!  :) This group will meet regularly, dedicated to doing fun hikes or long walks in beautiful locations all around in and around San Francisco Bay Area. The goal is to have a regular calendar of events going so the …

So I'm sitting in this three-day, 13-hour-a-day Landmark Education self-improvement seminar in San Francisco, and all I could think about was escaping through one of the (hermetically sealed) windows and making a dash for Nob Hill, the only thing resembling a steep incline in the area. It was during the dinner break during the final day of the seminar that I conspired with Paul Schutzman and Mai-Ling Garcia -- two of the very cool people with whom I'd made a connection during our three days of c …

This is a group of friends who get together to walk for fitness after 5:00PM, during the work week in Marin.  We are FASTER walkers that DO NOT stop to smell the flowers or take time to look at the sunsets.  We are friends who like to walk with others for fitness for one hour. What we mean by fast:  We can hold a conversations, but your heart rate will increase and you will sweat!  We are not runners or speed walkers but we all have been told "gosh, you walk fast".  We will leave you in the dust …
