IGLOO Directory

Image copyright by J. Anuszczyk & G. Pazour.

IGLOO, the International Gay & Lesbian Outdoors Organization, is the largest all-volunteer lesbigay outdoors network. Our membership is comprised of over 100 groups worldwide (and growing) which sponsor high adventure outdoor activities. Our chapters organize a wide variety of activities, each offering a comfortable setting in which to meet new people and develop lasting friendships in a healthy environment. Whether you seek the quiet serenity of a day hike or the fellowship of a group campout, our mission is to promote friendship, enjoyment, and appreciation of the outdoors through high adventure outdoor sports. Member groups swap newsletters and ideas and periodically join in combined activities. Communications and shared resources allow individual groups to tap into a wellspring of adventure. Who said coming out would be boring? It doesn't have to be.

This list was originally verified in 1993. Changes have occurred since then. The maintainer does not guarantee the accuracy of the entries. If you have any corrections or updates to the directory, please use this form to communicate; unexpected emails are deleted immediately.
