I was talking with someone yesterday while registering my car that suggested reddit for finding hiking groups in the area. I tried looking up a pinecone group that was suggested too, but didn't find anything so I'm braving reddit to hear suggestions.

There are several on Facebook. I know people can be reluctant to use Facebook and god knows I understand, but it's really how small town Maine communicates. Luckily, it's easy enough to block the unpleasant people and just tune in to the positive ones.

Yep, had to reactivate my account about a year ago because there were enough businesses and other groups that only ever posted updates on hours or programs on Facebook.

I tried reactivating mine a few years ago and they tried to make me jump through so many hoops to prove I was a real boy I eventually decided it wasn't worth it. No I'm not sending you my driver's license, Zucks.

Theres a Facebook group named 'Maine Hiking' that is very active. You could try there as well.

Meetup.com here in NJ there are dozens of hiking groups if not hundreds.
