They meet 2nd Thursday of the month, 7PM at Hardesty Library behind Jackie Cooper imports. Generally a good, safe, active group, so I've heard. Glenn or Robert from the Tulsa backwoods store can help getting you in touch with them. They both know me very well. If you are looking for a trip. I'm heading for Wheeler Pk. in NM for late July. Meeting a bunch of old scouting buddies/wives from my youth from Midland. I usually take my Goldwing on these short weekenders. You are welcome to join us for the drive alongside.

I have 2, maybe 3 trips to the rockies planned this summer. Wheeler PK, NM end of July. Silverton/Ouray, CO end of Aug. and maybe a 14er around then too. You might consider heading to New Mexico for a 3/4 day weekend trip. A lot cooler. It's only about 8 hrs from Tulsa. Like Cimarron, or Red River, or Chama area. Great Trails.

For hiking around here, you pretty much have to drive 2 or more hours to get to any good trails. One of the better trails I can think of is Buttermilk Hiking trail at Devils Den State Park in Arkansas. It's a two hr. drive. I also like to hit the Ouchita National Trail down in the Kiamichi Wilderness Area. But summer is not a good time for that area (ticks, poison ivy). So I usually head for New Mexico & Colo. for summer hikes to beat the heat.
