*Note* We have moved. Please check us out at http://hiking.meetup.com/409/
Like yahoo, meetup.com is totally free for users! I look forward to seeing you each on the new site.

New to downtown (and who isn't these days?) Looking to get to know some of your new neighbors? Looking to get out of the city and up into the hills occasionally? This is a new group for downtown LA residents (and those who love us!)who like hiking and want to meet others who do as well.

We'll hike mostly on the weekends, and try to keep the drives reasonably short. That means a lot of Griffith Park and the Hollywood hills, though occasionally we'll head farther afield for some longer, tougher hikes. Plus, maybe once a month or so we'll try to do some "urban hiking" as well.

Ideally, this group will be decentralized. I'll try to lead a hike every weekend, but if anyone has ideas for hikes that maybe I don't know, or if you want to lead a hike yourself, please feel free to post and do so.

For new members, I would appreciate if you could add a little something about yourself in your yahoo profile. It would be nice to know a little something about each other before hiking together! I look forward to seeing you all on the trails!
