You'd think that with the marvels of the web, you could find a hiking group. I have to write an update to adventures on the not-dating site. Good luck.

The introvert kicks in then. Hiking is only so-so popular locally, so I have to travel a bit. But point taken; I'll try to make an effort to find meetups both locally and where I travel.

From one introvert to another: don't let your fears drown your self. It's hard to meet new people, but don't let your mind lead you by the idea that it's bad just because you're afraid of it. In fact, from what I've learned so far, it's best to do what you're afraid of and persevere through fear; resilience, it appears, is a mental muscle which is ought to be flexed if one wishes to remain resilient.
