This group is for arranging group geocaching expeditions, big and small, based out of Calgary, AB. Not everyone has a geocaching buddy, and it's always better to go hiking with a (noisy) group. Everyone is invited to arrange outings- whether it be a one hour cache run in a specified district of Calgary, or an all day (or multi-day!) hiking excursion into the Rockies. At this time there is no membership fee, however I will welcome donations to cover the fee meetup.com charges me for creating this …

First created in 2006, this group is focused on sharing the natural environment with group-minded people, to enjoy the scenery, take pictures, appreciate the company, and occasionally socialize off-trail. Our trips tend to be smaller groups and slow-paced. I'm trying to keep it informal and friendly. At the same time, I'm trying to create a certain kind of group: there are some rules, guidelines, and a waiver. Be prepared, be safe, and care for each other and the environment.  Please read the d …

So I wanted to start a group for people in my age group (say 25-35 as a ballpark, by no means exclusive though) that could get together and just chill out. I was thinking something along the lines of 'how I met your mother' kind of thing. I just moved here like 7 months ago and it's been hard to build up a coherent group of friends so this seemed an easier way to synthesize one. It'd be cool to have lots of different kinds of people join. I felt like a lot of other groups are too one-dimensional …
