The mission of the Outback Hiking Club of Southern Utah is to promote hiking and an appreciation of the outdoors. Established in 1988, the club’s long and distinguished history is a result of the extraordinary voluntary efforts of its many members. Members plan and lead day hikes, overnight trips, backpack trips and other outdoor activities involving hiking. We promote responsible hiking through programs and speakers. We also support local hiking venues by assisting with trail maintenance, trail cleanup, and other associated activities.

Our Club depends on its members for hike leaders, officers, and other volunteer roles. We hope that in becoming a member you will contribute to the successful functioning of our Club and to outdoor/environmental practices and principles.
