Touch the Earth: Hike Clerb

We join Hike Clerb founder Evelynn Escobar, with friends Devin and Tamara, as they explore New Mexico's mountains, rivers and desert and connect with the local community of changemakers.

In REI Co-op Studios’ latest film, TO TOUCH THE EARTH, we join Hike Clerb founder Evelynn Escobar, with friends Devin and Tamara, as they explore New Mexico’s mountains, rivers and desert and connect with the local community of changemakers. Hike Clerb is an LA-based intersectional women’s hike club and 501c(3) founded in 2017 by changemaker, Evelynn Escobar. Inspired to take action by the lack of representation of people of color in the outdoors, Hike Clerb was born as a radical solution to this issue and more. We are equipping Black, Indigenous, women of color with the tools, education, resources and experiences they need to collectively heal in nature from Los Angeles and beyond.
