1st DAY HIKE


State parks across the nation offers First Day Hikes as a way to promote healthy lifestyles and year round recreation at America's State Parks. Each year, over 720 million people visit America's State Parks and contribute $23 billion to the economy. State Parks are a "close to home" resource and an important part of our national fabric, enhancing our quality of life. Last year more than 1,000 people joined the new tradition in 28 NC state parks. This year 39 NC state parks have hikes planned. My First Day Hike was to begin in Crowders Mountain State Park in North Carolina and end in Kings Mountain State Park in South Carolina. The plan was to hike the Ridgeline Trail, approximately 5 miles one-way. Unfortunately, rain cancelled the event. Bummed Out!
