The Carolina Mountain Club challenges Nemophilists like you and I to hike all 400 miles of beautiful trail in the Pisgah Ranger District of the Pisgah National Forest. Pisgah 400 This is my local stomping ground and over the last few years I have hiked much of it with the Friday Hoofers hiking group and with friends and family. It was not until recently that I got inspired to keep track of my hikes to earn this award, so actually have hiked more than shows on the spreadsheet below though didn’t document it! Follow my progress or join me in hiking it yourself!
Happy Trails!
