Welcome!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         General: SinglesHikes.com is a Hiking Group (not for profit) based out of Boulder, Colorado.  
It is open to hiking adults.  We hike in many locations including Local Parks, State Parks,                                             National Forests, Indian Peaks and RMNP.   Please don't be a 'onetimer'.                                                                          Bring a friend, mention the web site, copy the flier and post it or e-mail it to someone.
Each hike is unique.  Different destinations and different people.

Where to meet: The hikes meet at the lot south of 11th Street and Canyon Boulevard in Boulder.                    
Meet by the benches and flagpoles. We carpool. For north hikes the secondary meeting place
is the Stone Cup in Lyons on US 36.  For south hikes it is the Conoco north of Golden on 93.                                                  

What to bring: Please pay gas money to your driver. Bring a daypack, sturdy hiking boots,

Ratings: The Friday hikes are easy or easy/mod.    The Sunday hikes are easy/mod,                                                            moderate or strenuous.                                                                                                             

On the hike: Be considerate. Please don't charge ahead of the group. Leaders want                                                               to have fun too and don't want to go searching for you so:
Please stay with the group and hike between the leader and the rear leader.
You may be needed if someone has a problem. 
Let leaders know if you need to stop or plan to leave the group.
Please kept track of the route in case you get separated form the group.
If you do become separated from the group then please don't hike uphill or away from the car.
Either return to the car or wait a reasonable time on the trail for the group and then return to the car.
Please don't linger at view stops after the group has left for the next one.
Keep track of your driver during the hike.

Hiking is a relatively safe sport but hazards exit.  Focus on the where you are stepping.
Please hike with awareness of your safety and the safety of others.
On narrow, rocky or steep trails allow room between you and the hiker in front of you.
Never hike in the Fall Line above a hiker on Steep Terrain!  If a sudden storm arrives                                                          then exit peak or rock tops even before you put on your raingear!

Let's go hiking!
