Out in the Woods

The South Island’s coolest queer hiking group, making monthly outings to the forest. All genders welcome, join us!
We checked out Monument Mountain and Grass Lake this weekend – it was a bit harder than our usual hikes with some steep hills, but it was a good one!
Sunny day, a fun crew of people, it was a great day. See you all next month!

I always love coming back to this trail at Goldstream Park. Some challenging inclines paired with thick vegetation, gorgeous waterfalls… and a great group of ppl to enjoy it with.
Another successful @outinthewoodsvi.bsky.social day!
