About us
# Just because it's a bad idea doesn't mean it won't be a good time.
Who are we? A group of fun people with similar interests in outdoor & recreational activities and making new friends.
What do we do? Hiking, paddle sports, festivals, ball games, winter activities and social gatherings. Many of our events are suitable for children.
What about extreme sports? Sorry. If you're looking for extreme sports, there are other meetup groups that would be better suited for you.
What are the rules? We ask that you have fun but respect the interests and abilities of others. The event hosts are a group of volunteers who give much of their time to plan and organize events, so due respect is required.
What does it cost? Trial memberships are free for 30 days. Full memberships are just $5 a year. There are two ways to pay. 1) click "Join Us" and pay on-line using secured Stripe. 2) pay cash or check at one of our events to the event host. Your membership will switch from "Trial" to "Paid Member".
The membership fee is to pay for the website. Any remaining balance will be donated to charity.

Beech Mountain hike, eat & play
402 Beech Mountain Pkwy, Beech Mountain, NC, USLet's enjoy the fall season with a day trip to Beech Mountain.
We'll check out the Emerald Outback Trails, and perhaps part of the Beech Mountain greenway. We did this event six years ago and I'm looking forward to returning.
Most of the trails are listed as easy to moderate. A couple are listed as advanced, but I believe that rating is intended for mountain bikers.
Planning to spend about 3 hours on the trails. There are some various options where we can split into two groups if some would like to go at a faster pace, but it needs to be done in an organized fashion so we can regroup.
After the hike we can have a bite to eat. There is a Brick Oven Pizzeria and even a miniature golf course next to the parking lot we can check out.
The one concern I have is parking. Please consider carpooling.
So, let's see who signs up and then we can discuss carpools. From Hickory we need to leave around 9:00. From Morganton about 9:30.
Hope to see you there!
