The City is your backdrop for an evening of outdoor cocktails, trip and gear drawings

At The Empire Hotel, we will enjoy cocktail specials on a gorgeous open roof deck with amazing city views. This is one of the city’s best spots for mingling, and surveying New York in all its summer glory. Don’t worry, we have indoor space available for variable weather.

We will be celebrating summer by raffling off thousands of dollars’ worth of gear and trips and gift bags. Gear and apparel provided by Tents & Trails, trips from Outdoor Bound, Mountain Skills, Trinity Boxing and other sponsors! Proceeds from the raffle will benefit the New York–New Jersey Trail Conference.

Meet other adventurous New Yorkers, mingle with our staff and learn about the season’s best getaways.

Advance registration is required, but admission is free. Special vodka open bar from 6:00 - 7:00 PM, so don’t be late. Food and more drinks available thereafter.

We’ll see you there!

Outdoor Bound Mizzou Alumni Private Hike & Happy Hour

Mizzou Alumni Private Hike & Happy Hour

Experienced, Fun & Qualified Guides

From cycling across the United States to leading horse treks through New Zealand to scaling Nepalese peaks, Outdoor Bound guides have real-world outdoor experience. Collectively, they have hiked, biked, climbed and kayaked tens of thousands of miles around the globe.

Whether their professional backgrounds are as teachers, personal trainers, artists, environmentalists or business leaders, they all have an extensive knowledge of the natural world and local history. Each guide has also passed a rigorous guide certification program and is trained in wilderness first aid or as a Wilderness First Responder.

Diverse & Interesting Groups

There is no typical Outdoor Bound participant. While ages typically range from 20 to 50, those who come to experience outdoor adventure range from singles to couples, from lawyers to waiters. They are a mix of women and men. While the group is always diverse, you will certainly feel welcome. Our guides go the extra mile to make the atmosphere of each trip social and fun. Many people in the Outdoor Bound community have forged lasting friendships as a result of our trips.

New Experiences

Skydiving, ice-climbing, hot-air ballooning, skiing and hiking every weekend are just a few of Outdoor Bound’s year-round adventures. These trips are accessible to everyone, including the novice, who might feel a little uneasy, the young urban professional trying to get away and even the adrenaline junkie looking for a new rush.

Environmental Awareness

“Leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but pictures,” is the Leave No Trace motto embraced by Outdoor Bound. From purchasing bamboo T-shirts to printing with soy-based inks on recycled paper, Outdoor Bound strives to create the least environmental impact possible while on trips and in the office.
