Hiking GTG

In my previous thread about hiking and outdoor activities, a few of us vocalized interest in having a hiking get-together for us San Diego nesties.  I'd like to get the ball rolling on that idea and see how many of you would like to take part.  I think it would be a great opportunity to meet new people, get some fresh air and exercise, and explore new parts of San Diego.  To make this simple, I have a few questions that will make planning this simpler. 

1. When would be a good time to plan a hiking get-together?  Specifically, what days in May would work for you?  What day of the week and time of day would you prefer?

2. What location would you recommend? 

3. Anything else you'd like to add!

Re: Hiking GTG

  • To answer the questions I posed:

    1. When would be a good time to plan a hiking get-together?  Specifically, what days in May would work for you?  What day of the week and time of day would you prefer? The last half of May would work well for me; the 17th would be the first Saturday I'm free.  I would like to have a Saturday or Sunday morning or early evening hike.

    2. What location would you recommend?  I'm fairly new to the area, so I'll leave that up to the rest of you.

    3. Anything else you'd like to add! 

  • I am afraid of snakes, so no hiking for me...but I would be more than willing to meet up with you ladies before or after...
  • That's too bad!  I've only encountered a couple of snakes in my life while I was outdoors and they were never close enough to bother me.  We could always go for coffee or something before or after we go hiking, so you could join in on that.

  • Annieluvsjordan brought up the idea of bringing our significant others on the hike with us.  I'd like to do that as well so let me know if you're interested.
  • I love Cowles Mountain and going to Cuyamaca. Either would work for me but Cowles is a bit closer... I am always up for Saturdays or Sundays. I'd suggest earlier in the morning since it's getting hotter.

  • I'm also interested!!! With or without DH :-)  This Saturday and Sunday work for me, as well as May 11, 18 and the 31st, I personally would prefer a Saturday though :-) 

    I'll go any where :-)  Cowles Mtn sounds good (I've never been there though), I'm up to go any where... Close to my house I've gone to the Rancho Penasquitos reserve and to Miramar Lake.

  • The end of May is better for me Saturday or Sunday mornings.  I like Cowles Mtn.  Bringing our DHs sounds fun.
  • I'm glad quite a few people are showing interest!  How does Sunday, May 18th sound?  I'm fine with any of the locations you've recommended, so we can figure that out collectively.
  • The  10th (early am), 24th or 25th would work really well for me, pretty much all the rest of my weekends are full.  I would love to bring my SO!  I don't know too much about the different hiking trails, so I would be down for whatever is suggested.
  • Since Just_Ali said the 24th or 25th would be best for her (Memorial Day weekend), does that work for everyone else?  I'd like to schedule it so the maximum amount of people are able to go.
  • If we are bringing out SOs, I would be down for the hike Smile that way if we encounter a snake...he will be there with me. I cant do Memorial Weekend. I would prefer the 3rd, 10th or 17th. DH is moving to DC on Memorial Weekend and I am moving to Temecula that weekend.
  • I'm glad to hear you'd like to go now!  I think it will be a lot of fun to have our significant others with us.  The 17th would be fine for me, but it seems like it's going to be difficult figuring out a date that would work for everyone.  Hopefully I'll be able to come up with a set weekend after a few more people reply back with their schedules and give me a clear idea of what day would be best.
  • I'd be up for that!  I love hiking :)
  • We would love to come, but the only avail weekend is Memorial day weekend and we may still be really jet lagged from Europe so I may be out on this one :( 

     Next time!
     

  • Hm...I wonder if pushing it to the first half of June would be better since everyone is so busy in May.  What do you think?
  • I think June may be a better idea, I had completely forgotten about Memorial weekend!  Maybe you could post a poll above and see which weekend in June is best for everyone??
  • Memorial Day weekend would work for us Smile I thought my ILs were coming in, but they decided to come in July, so that weekend would be perfect!!!
  • I think Memorial Day weekend would be nice just because it's a long weekend, but I'll set up a poll in another thread and take a vote to get a better idea of what everyone would prefer.
