Who we are 
The Gay and Lesbian Sierrans, or GLS, is a section of the Angeles Chapter
(Southern California) of the Sierra Club.  We serve the gays and lesbians within
the club and reach out to the members of the gay and lesbian community who seek
to enjoy and protect the wild places of the earth.

In addition to our section, there are two GLS sections in northern California:
GLS/Loma Prieta Chapter and GLS/Bay Chapter. 

What we offer
We offer a special invitation to gays and lesbians to enjoy the activities and
programs of the Sierra Club.  Our combination of outings and activism make the
Sierra Club unique.  Our diverse activities and programs offer a great
opportunity to experience and enjoy natural places and also to work for their
protection.

We publish a bimonthly newsletter, Tracks, which lists all of our activites.
You don't have to be a member of the Sierra Club to subscribe or to participate
in our activites.  Tracks contains news and other information, and the busiest
schedule of any gay and lesbian outdoor organization in Southern California.
Come share the comradeship and the adventure of upcoming outings!
