Playful kino always, do things like help each other up over big rocks, piggy back rides(her on top obviously), etc. Hiking is really fun. At one point, if you're not a toothpick and the kino game has been slowly building to the point where you're comfortable touching each other. Pick her up in your arms and carry her up for a bit. You can even go for the first kiss there as she's in your arms if you're feeling ballsy. It's cheesy af, but who cares. Just have fun dude.
Btw, that camera kiss sounds awful to me, but if you have fun doing that and you think it works well to build attraction then you do that. Personally, I feel it's a bit sneaky and sly. I like to go towards the more direct sexual tension road with teases that eventually lead to kisses/makeouts. I feel like a tiny kiss on the cheek gives off a big "I want to kiss you, but I am testing the waters first because I'm not that confident" kinda vibe. Maybe you can try a camera lip kiss instead? As she's adjusting the camera look at her, grab her chin, turn her head slowly towards yours and go in for a kiss.

I can try that too. Should I use something like "wait, you have something on your face" and then grab her chin and go for it, or should I just go for it?
Edit: Then ask if she got the picture, and if not say "I guess we have to try again?"

Absolutely not. You're a fucking man. You don't need little excuses to go in for the kiss. Plus, that's a vibe killer man. Keep it silent to build the sexual tension. Stare into her eyes, look down at her lips and then back up to her eyes and then slowly move towards her face.
Then ask if she got the picture, and if not say "I guess we have to try again?"
That's a good idea, but I would phrase it with more authority. You don't ask, you state. Try something like "Did you get that?" If she says no then say "Ok, make sure you get it this time." and go in for another kiss. If she says that she did get the snapshot then say "Cool, but I know we can do much better" and go in for another kiss.

This my general rule for first dates and it works well for me. If your about to do something and if you think about it for a minute and realize it's something Michael Scott would do...don't do that thing. In all seriousness I have no real advice other than be chill and treat her like a person. Good Luck

Hi I'm date mike, nice to meet me. How do you like your eggs in the morning

Scrambled, or fertilized?
[–]broncoflyer8912 10 points11 points12 points 10 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Do many girls think this is a great first date idea?? I would think they would be worried about you murdering them...
[–]Strike488 points 10 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
You'd be surprised. There are a lot of women that are not homebodies. If you're a fucking weirdo though then you might trigger her creep sensor and then a hike date is most likely not going to happen. You just have to be a normal dude.
[–]Byizo 3 points4 points5 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don't really care. I like hikes. If she isn't into it or is scared then she doesn't have to come. My dates are planned around things I would do anyways, but would be fun to have someone join me.
[–]dogfuckcancer -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
In my opinion, if you have met them before hiking dates work well, if it's a tinder date, hiking dates make you look like a psycho.
[–]alex0919 7 points8 points9 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
This is just my opinion, so if you get consistent results from these kind of dates (sex), definitely discount me, I have something to learn.
But in general, something inconvenient and harder to control like this isn't extremely conducive to the two of you getting together as lovers if things go well. Plus girls will be self conscious if they're sweaty and smelly and your intentions are to have sex so that just means even more resistance.
My tips to salvage this would be:

On the other hand, there are potentials out there who consider an out of breath, are we there yet condition to be the epitome of the day. More so than an "But I am le tired" condition.
It can behoove one to watch for these human-challenging moments as well. Embrace them, and push for them. As long as one doesn't end up hang gliding the Grand Canyon in a windsuit after dark...
[–]cehmu 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
seriously dude, you're only dealing with shallow girls.
if you can find a girl to go walking way out in the middle of nowhere with you, and appreciate nature, you're already set. She's got a better and more down to earth personality than 90% of these shopping addicted idiots out there.
OP. let all your defences down, breathe the lovely fresh air, and enjoy!
[–]Skullydugg7 points 10 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
Once you get out far enough, she won't say no. You know, because of 'the implication'.
[–]Snazzy_Serval 4 points5 points6 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Talk, joke have fun. Be sure to touch her throughout the hike in ways that make sense.
If the kiss selfie thing works for you then by all means.
[–]jefffffffff 2 points3 points4 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
so much kino oppertunity during a hike. if your walking past another group of people and the space is narrow put your hand on her back and guide her through. also during some steep parts hold her hand and help her down (only if its really steep and if she acts scared). bring a killer lunch/ snacks in a backback.
[–]Rawr_I_am_a_Beer 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

She's actually only free early afternoon. I have a few cliff bars for if we get hungry, but by the time we get back, it should be time for dinner. If the hike went well, I'll see if she wants to grab a bite somewhere too.
Thanks for the kino ideas. I had the people one, but I didn't catch the steep parts one.
[–]ddramer 3 points4 points5 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I like your selfie plan! As people have mentioned, playful touching awesome, butt bump her as you walk, brush hair from her eyes, hand holding etc...
You could also try some role reversal role play:
Walk ahead of her and accuse her of checking out your ass. Mention how secluded the area is and tell her she better not be thinking of taking advantage of you because you can scream really loud. Tell her how strong and powerful her legs are as she climbs ahead of you.
Love these ideas. Thanks.

Active, unconventional dates are fantastic for getting to know someone for the first time. As with anything relating to picking up women - just enjoy yourself. Be the catalyst of a good time. If you are having fun you are fun to be around.
I don't think you will have to rely on the hail-mary play of the selfie kiss move.

Bring duct tape, chloroform, and a protein-rich high-energy snack
[–]TheXXL 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
and a protein-rich high-energy snack
If it's for her, i am sure he got it in him already.
[–]IBeStrokin121 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Why would she need it?? He's the one who's gonna need his strength...
[–]TheXXL 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
i assumed she is like the girls i know, and some of them regularly claim they need my proteins ;)

Well geez man it's not fun when they ASK for it!.... Now you've killed my boner....

No stumble-and-grab for stability?
No I'm-out-can-I-share-your-camelbak-now-we've-kissed?
Must. Be. More. Playful. It's a great big world out there.

Tbh. I would just not give a fuck about anything. Let your personality flow.
[–]loosetingles 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
do not do the selfie kiss thing, especially on a first date
[–]ThreesusShuttleworth 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I'm more worried about the ride there, but I live like 1.5 hours from the nearest good hike spot so that might be why....
[–]ImFromTimBuktu 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
aint nothing like being trapped in a car with a stranger for 3 hours round trip...though if you gives off the right vibes, she'll trust you not to be a murder and the long car ride can really help build a connection.
It's 40 minutes one way to where we're going. There is one that's like 10 minutes away, but it's about 15° cooler where we're going (mountains). It's also a slightly easier hike with a better view.
The one that's closer is nice, but it's really only worth going around sunset. And since the sun doesn't set here until 9:30-ish... yea...
[–]TeunB 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
You should bring a backpack with some food for a small picknick :-)
[–]Rawr_I_am_a_Beer 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link

That's a great idea, but the time we'll be going will be too early for dinner and too late for lunch. But by the time we get back, it'll be time for dinner. If the hike went well, then I'm going to ask her out for a quick bite to eat.
Also idk how 2 picknick...
[–]TeunB 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Take a blanket you can put on the ground, some wine and cups and bring some simpel yummy things like some cheese or stuff like that! It shows her you put effort in it and you care! :-)
[–]ZayneD 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Be very playful and be sure to pick a relatively easy hike. Super sweaty dates aren't ideal.
[–]cehmu 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
we don't even know whose idea it was. If it was hers, then she probably likes getting sweaty.
[–]Rawr_I_am_a_Beer 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It was my idea, but hopefully I'll find out if she likes getting sweaty tomorrow night ;-)
[–]zomgitsduke 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Be prepared. Bring water, small snacks, plastic zip lock bags for phones if it rains, a phone charger battery, jacket, and hand sanitizer.
[–]Boo-urns93 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
and hand sanitizer
lol
[–]ruhri 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I've done this before and it went well and was fun. Go at a comfortable pace that allows the two of you to be playfully chatty and flirty. In these situations it's more about enjoying the scenery and getting to know the person you are with than trying to get to a certain destination. Take frequent stops to just look sit and rest, observe your surroundings, goof off, etc. Makeout sessions with dramatic scenery as the backdrop are quite pleasant and fun imo.

I'm guessing just go for the makeout when we're sitting at a great spot?
[–]ruhri 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Basically. Put your arm around her for a while or hold hands with fingers interlocked and then initiate the kiss when you feel the time is right after having looked at the scenic view for a while.
[–]cehmu 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
thanks for this thread. forgot how much i live hiking, and what a nice thing it is to share with a cutey.
also totally breaks the neediness in me, cos anyway going for a nice hike is awesome, so nothing lost if she isn't my type.
Damn. The kiss on the cheek bro. Thats smart lmaooo
[–]mellybop271 point 10 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link
See if you can find a Geo cache or even set up your own! Gives you a reason to stop for a bit and it's fun.
[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points0 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Lots of kino opportunities on the hike. You lead the way and put your arm on her lower back to get her started. When you see something cool you grab or to turn her and look at it, etc. Bring a bottle of LIGHT wine (pinot grigio, or something similar, don't get a fucking bottle of cab for the hike) and two plastic wine cups or a red cup works fine too. Find a place to be quiet with her, connect with nature, face her, and have her open up. what's her biggest goal? Fear? accomplishment?What are things like with her parents? Make her feel GOOD. Drink no more than half the bottle of champagne at this point and save the rest.
Bounce her for two reasons: 1) compliance and 2) The more places you go with a woman the better connected she'll feel to you. find a new lanmark spot where you can sit with her side by side. Put your arm around her and tell her your glad she came. Leave it there for a second - don't fucking kiss her. Attraction PEAKS at the first kiss, don't waste it somewhere where you can't fucking do anything about it.
Drink the second half of the bottle and get her back to yours. Or, if not, give her a nice wet good bye. Then, go find more dates and forget about her until she texts you. Have more booze and food at your place - don't want to get whisky dick.
