A group for WOMEN who hike and backpack in California (and occasionally further abroad). Not men who can't read.

We respect Leave No Trace, share the costs of our adventures equally if necessary, and enjoy the company of awesome wilderness loving women who are wanting companions to go out and play.

Message me if you would like to be an event organizer. Always happy to facilitate community.

New joining members on approval only, to keep men from ignoring the obvious. If I'm backpacking it will take a while for me to review and approve - please be patient.

CHANGED: San Joaquin River Gorge

The winter storm warning has changed my plan!There is a $5 day use fee to park if you do not have an Interagency pass.
The loop is 8 miles and moderately strenuous to strenuous. There are two river hikes as well that would involve less elevation gain. 
Rain is in the forecast, but I will bring a jacket and my umbrella. We will hike until we are done and retreat to the car.
I will save snowshoeing for another day.
Don't forget to help your carpool driver pay for fuel.
