Hump day. Early December. Wintery outside.

Perfect conditions to warm yourself up at tonight's meeting of the Maine Outdoor Adventure Club in Portland.

Rub elbows with a hundred or so other outdoorsy types. Get in on the winter trip planning. Have a few laughs.

And get to hear all about the tremendous effort underway to build a 180-mile trail and hut system extending from Moosehead Lake to Bethel, for x-c skiers, hikers and hopefully mountain bikers (right Dave?!).

Yep, Dave Herring, Executive Director of Maine Huts & Trails will be tonight's featured speaker. And he'll brief us on all the details about this world class project that will draw outdoor enthusiasts from near and far.

Hope to see you there...
