Over the next few weeks, SoCal outdoor outfitters Adventure 16 will host Allan Riedel — author of the guidebook 100 Classic Hikes in Southern California. Riedel will offer tips on his favorite local trails, hidden camping spots, and good family trips at all seven Southern California branches of A16:

– Tarzana Store: Thurs., Sept. 4, 7 p.m.
– West Los Angeles Store: Thurs., Sept. 11, 7 p.m.
– Torrance Store: Thurs., Sept. 18, 7 p.m.
– Costa Mesa Store: Thurs., Sept. 25, 7 p.m.
– Oceanside Store: Thurs., Oct. 2, 7 p.m.
– Solana Beach Store: Thurs., Oct. 9, 7 p.m.
– San Diego Store: Thurs., Oct. 16, 7 p.m.

No word on whether or not punch and pie will be served, but we can assume CLIF bars and iced tea are likely.
