Waterfall Survivors

Normally I try to avoid groups that are tied to a specific geographic location, but when I happened to discover 'Waterfall Survivors', they seemed like a great exception to make to my general rule. The group, which has over 4,000 members, connects waterfall enthusiasts in Malaysia. Seemingly well-organized, they offer a number of events per month. There are over 1500 images in the gallery, mostly chronicling group events, but also a few beautiful nature shots. Threads on the discussion board include 'Beware the bugs' which gives specific advice about various creepy crawlies, 'Your Testimonial about your experience with Waterfall Survivors', 'Day trip charges', 'Tips when organizing/following trips to waterfall' and 'How shall we do it that more people can join in for the trips and make it adventurous and fun??' Included in fees for activities is one day insurance coverage for the event. Investigate the group, if you are looking for adventure in Malaysia or if you want hints on how to start up something similar in your region.

What's great about this group: They seem to form a fun community.
