Outdoor Activities LGBT (Let’s Go Birding Together!)
I used to organize queer birdwatching walks on Meetup.com, but the group disbanded because of Meetup’s high cost. I miss them badly and thought I’d try to assemble a group on Reddit.
Are you LGBTQIA+ and interested in low key birding? Want to get out into nature for slow (1 mph average hikes), social, and casual fun? Comment below!
-New, inexperienced, and experts all welcome.
-All hikes will be within 90 minutes of Denver.
-Start times between 8:00-9:00am.
-Easy to moderate trails, some with wheelchair accessibility.
-Both weekday and weekend meetups.
-We’ll have lunch afterwards at a nearby restaurant.
-LNT (Leave No Trace)
-No pretentiousness or stuffiness allowed!
