Boot 'n Blister Club

The Hiking Club of Humboldt State University

This group existed from the early '60s to the late '70s or early '80s (according to Norm). The alumni get together about each year for a reunion hike and have been since about 1986. The 2006 trip may be in the Cascades; some Oregon BnB folks expressed an interest in such a trip and I'd love to go if somebody else plans it . If I end up being the guy who plans it, I'll be inclined to have a Sierra-Nevada hike; we haven't been there in three years.
