About the event
Join us for an overnight backpacking adventure deep in the mountains of Western North Carolina. This is a real wilderness experience, designed for veterans who are ready to get off the grid, carry their own weight, and share a night under the stars with a community of people who understand the mission mindset.
We will pack in everything we need for the night, tent, sleeping bag, food, and water, over 2.5 miles of mountain terrain. Dinner and breakfast are provided and will be packed in with the group. All you need to bring is your gear and yourself.
No backpacking gear? No problem. We will provide everything you need so that cost and equipment are never a barrier to being here.
