Is there a big outdoor community in Baltimore?

I’d say Baltimore has an average size community of outdoorsy folks for an East Coast city of 500,000+ people.

I give kudos to Patagonia for putting their Maryland store in the city proper instead of Columbia or some other bland burb. Hopefully it will be a hub for urban outdoors people and environmental-focused events for all of central Maryland, similar to the REI in Timonium. Apparently there is community work/lounge space in this new store according to the Banner article.

Baltimore is pretty easy to escape for a city of its size. I know lots of people that go on trips for local hikes and even further outdoor adventures. I like a city of its size because you can easily exit without it being a huge hassle, except maybe between 4PM-6PM on weekdays.
