Each hike is approximately 15 to 20 miles. This group is for people for whom a short hike is not enough, people who want to quench the thirst for experience and diversity, and to learn more of the amazing area i …

My husband and I are doers. We love to travel, meet new people, and try new things. We recently had our first child and moved to a new state at the same time.
