The club’s second scheduled trip for 2015 to Hurricane Creek and the surrounding areas in NC and TN will be July 24th – 26th. Brian Keefer will be leading a trip June 26th - 28th.
This is an Expo style trip in which self-reliance is the subject: No bathrooms, no gas stops, no showers, no guaranteed camping sites as we will be miles from paved roads. You can expect miles of US Forestry Service roads, short mountain hikes (to the top of Max Patch and hopefully Buzzard's Roost this year), scenic views, refreshing mountain streams, cool nights spent around a campfire and maybe a bear or two. Expectations are that any Toyota with 4WD will do fine on the terrain we'll be covering. (Read here: You don't need lockers, a lift, mud tires, etc.)
As far as equipment, gear, etc., those attending will coordinate so we don't have more than 2 of most things (campstoves, etc) and yet ensure we have firewood, tarps, rope, saws, shovels, potable water, etc. At a minimum, an attendee would need a lightweight sleeping bag, tent, cooler and $ to put towards group meals.
Details will be ironed out in the near future but plans will include the ever-popular group meals. The trip will be limited to 9 paid ONSC member trucks. Click HERE to see the thread and photos from last year's trip.
