BMTA ACTIVITY CALENDAR

BMTA normally schedules four or five hikes per month, some “leisure” hikes that are shorter and easier and some 5 to 8 miles and of moderate difficulty. In addition, we have occasional backpacking hikes and more difficult ones that might be called “hardy hikes.” Occasionally we co-sponsor hikes with other organizations. Some, but not all, of our hikes are “dog friendly.” Although more hikes are in Georgia than the other states, you will find hikes in all three BMT states: Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

*Please refer to: BMTA COVID-19 Hiker Guidelines and Hiker Guidelines.

September 12-13 NC Maintenance Trip

When:  Thursday/Friday, September 12-13, 2024
Where:  Overnight Wilderness Camping Work Trip in the Joyce Kilmer Slickrock Wilderness
Where: Big Fat Gap >> Tapoco Lodge
Camping:  Nichols Cove

Plan for the Trip:  The total length of the trail is 6.2 miles over two days. This will be a strenuous trip using crosscut saw in the Wilderness, so anyone interested in this hike needs to contact Dick Evans at bmta@frontier.com so he can fully inform folks about this trip, including the meeting time and place, and other arrangements. He is looking for four additional folks.

This trip is not appropriate for a large group overnighting. There is not an opportunity for a day hiker to participate in any meaningful way.

You need NOT be crosscut certified to participate!

Watch for additional information in emails and on the BMTA website!
