Kayak/Canoe
In September 2008 and 2009, the Omaha Hiking Club went on an overnight camping trip to Valentine, Nebraska. Members canoed and kayaked on the Niobrara River. The group visited Smith Falls and spent the night camping. Graham Canoe Outfitter provided the canoes, kayaks, tents and fabulous food. A good time was had by all!
In the past, our bike hikes were almost exclusively trail rides (not road rides), and are intended more for enjoying the surroundings than achieving mileage or speed goals. Typical bike rides are the Wabash Trace, Steamboat Trace, and Chalco Hills Recreation Area.
Snow Shoe/Cross Country Ski Events
Snow Shoe or Cross Country Ski outings are scheduled when there is adequate snow fall. These events have been scheduled at Neale Woods and Boyer Chute National Wildlife Refuge. Members attending these events are expected to bring their own gear and be adequately dressed to weather the elements.
Of Other Interest
During the winter of 2008, events were scheduled to keep the club members active. These events included ice skating and scuba diving.
During the summer of 2009, Omaha Hiking Club Members took an all day field trip to Ashfall Fossil Beds.
