hiking, camping

Sometime ago I saw an announcement on the back of a car that had to do with a hiking and camping club. It placed emphasis on Pico Diablo, Picacho, and Burroughs. I tried to get the driver's attention but was unsuccesful. Does anybody know of such a club? Thanks

There are a couple hiking/climbing clubs based out TJ and Ensenada. Met some members once and once ran acrosss their website -- don't remember the club names -- the club members appear to be a bunch of 20-somethings (on the youthful side). More long in the tooth (and gringo-based): some Sierra Clubbers used to do periodic trips to Picacho del Diablo, check out desert peaks group.
