The now regular pre-meeting email!

By
Hello everyone! I know it's late, my b, but I'm trying to get this out before Tuesday, we'll see how fast I can type! We will meet tomorrow, Tuesday, at 9pm outside WPU! From what I've heard, those that went had a lovely time at Ohiopyle with rafting, hiking, climbing and some free-range exploration (I'm reading y'all found natural waterslides? rip to me) so that's awesome! If anyone who went has any notes about what was great for future years, what could use some work, we'd love to chat with you at the meeting tomorrow! If you wanna see some pics from Ohiopyle check out our instagram! Also please note that the instagram is now  @outdoorsclubpitt because of weird naming guidelines from Pitt, in the email following tomorrow's meeting we'll outline how naming things will affect our various platforms. And most importantly, at tomorrow's meeting: We will review Ohiopyle (we'd love feedback) Evan will talk about Laurel Highlands (if you're...

Meeting minutes 256 days after Groundhog Day

Hey folks,  Hope everyone was bequeathed good times by the spooky spirit of second Halloweekend. This Saturday we're heading down to one of Pittsburgh's best hometown crags, Breakneck.  Channel the collective stoke of all the yinzers that have gone before you and throw down on some sweet sweet sport routes.  If you get stuck on a move, just picture Hines Ward, Bill Peduto, and Andrew Carnegie cheering you on and the ghost of Mr. Rogers will come down and guide you to a super positive undercling.  Sign up here to commune with the spirit of everyone's favorite neighbor:  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf9ZHr2hMNz6nl8RwE1nq-wBp937dh670D_e-ocXRYQKvCuCw/viewform?usp=sf_link Next weekend, the 16th -18th, there's going to be a hiking trip to Mt. Davis.  If getting high on hikes is your idea of a good time, you can't have more fun in Pennsylvania.  The top of Mt. Davis is the highest elevation in the Commonwealth, so as long as Wiz Khalifa is out of town you have ...

To all you lovely people out there, We have a meeting today (Tuesday 9/14)! Same time, same place. That being: 9pm, on the WPU Lawn, also known as this place right here: Okay sick, that oughta do it! In other news, selections have been made for Ohiopyle! We are so so so happy with the amount of people who wanted to go on this trip. Unfortunately, campgrounds are only so big, and we only have so many supplies, and we have a budget per person. If you are going, you should have gotten an email about it. If you did not get an email, do not despair. This is but one of many many trips that we will have. (And lowkey this one will prolly be super busy compared to some of the later ones). SPEAKING OF, we have a much smaller trip coming up. In some ways, that could mean that it's more competitive, in other ways, it could mean that a little tight-knit group of backpackers form! That's right y'all! We got BACKPACKING up next. We will be venturing over to the Laurel Highlands and doing ...
