About the Colorado Mountain Club Boulder Group
The Colorado Mountain Club Boulder Group is based in Boulder, Colorado and leads trips throughout Colorado and across the globe.
We offer numerous programs, lectures and events every month.
Our members enjoy a huge variety of hiking, backpacking, climbing and skiing activities throughout the entire year in addition to local social outings and an enjoyable Group Annual Dinner which is held every November/December to celebrate our members. Boulder outings run the gamut from leisurely slow-paced flower photography hikes and conservation projects to challenging high mountain summit climbs. We like to hike, ski and climb. We are friendly and we like to have fun!
For all level mountaineers, Boulder provides regular seminars in leadership, safety, CPR and Wilderness First Aid. We also sponsor the Boulder Hiking School for people new to the Colorado mountains; the Boulder Mountaineering School (established in 1947) for members interested developing more technical mountaineering skills; and the Advanced Mountaineering School for those who think they might like to tackle full-scale mountaineering expeditions.
There are yearly Back Country Ski Clinics, Telemark Ski Clinics, Ice Climbing Schools, Rock Climbing Schools, Backpacking Schools, Navigation Classes and Hiking Schools.
Our bylaws define how our group is organized.
Activity Schedules
As soon as you have joined the Club, you will have access to member privileges on the state website, cmc.org. This website lists all the hikes, climbs, bicycle trips, ski tours, and other trips sponsored by the various CMC groups throughout the State. As a member of the statewide organization, you are welcome on all trips, regardless of which group sponsors them. Each trip is classified by difficulty so that you may choose those that fit your present ability level. Our leaders are volunteers, so there is no charge, except minimal carpooling fees, for going on trips. The trip descriptions explain trip classification and answers many other questions about trip.
Publications Received by Members
Members receive the quarterly magazine Trail & Timberline which has been published continuously by the state CMC since 1920. Coming soon the Compass, Boulder Group e-newsletter. The meetings also get announced in the Compass and Rucksack newsletters, which you can subscribe to on the state web site, cmc.org. After logging in, see About > Newsroom > Newsletters.
