• Day 131. – Yellowstone Prong

  

  Stash the bike upstream somewhere in the bushes and park at the lower falls section. Get prep’d and ready to head up through the cascading waterfalls. It’s about 5miles, I find it best to go barefoot, although Astral footwear does some good shoes that’ll help get you up and past the waterfall. Bring Friends and…

• Day 128. – It’s A Rodeo

  

  We’re running a bit behind today. So when we arrive be sure you take in as much as possible. Try to meet some locals, there should be a few family members in the crowd about to watch their son last the 8 seconds on the bulls…  Or the market storefronts have some pretty good looking…

• Day 127. – Just Peak It

  

  Okay, today is the day. Check and double check everything is packed because we’re going up the 4 pitches to the top. The plan is simple, grab a lift to the top of the forest and lock up the mountain bikes. Ascend the hike to the Sundial cliff face and complete the multiple pitches to the…

• Day 126. – Lost At Lake Jocassee​

  

  We’ve got a plan, all we need to is get up early enough to get the job done. Today it’s a bit different. Up early and into the car, we’re out on the lake all day but first, we need to drop Jarryd and Dean off in the Kayaks for some scouting.

• Day 125. – Pack For Foley Beach

  

  Pack everything… we’re leaving late afternoon and heading coastal. It’s a surf trip and we’ve got the car, surfboards and big smiles. Coach managed to snag a few waves but the surf isn’t anything to write home about. It’s good that the pier and a sunset delivers!

• Day 124. – The New climb Spot

  

  Okay, you’ve got the entire day off. Let’s get up, put the paces on it, grab some coffee and head past ‘granddads apples’ farm. But first we’ll detour for a swim at Whales Back Falls and get the Sundial climb in first (might take a nap here). After we’ll  head across to this new spot…

• Day 123. – The Almost Failed Multi-Pitch​

  

  Okay, we’ve got leave sorted, a vehicle booked, the climbing gear double checked and packed away. All we need is the good weather… which is one thing Pisgah national park cannot always promise. With the morning starting off bright and sunny Grant and I hit the sundial pitch at Looking-glass. Luckily we packed enough for…

• Day 122.- Aptly Named. Rainbow Falls!

  

  Turn that radio up… ‘Call Me Maybe’ is pumping and the van full of kids know all the words. It’s a 45min drive so pack lunch for 13 and hit the path that circles Pisgah National Park. We’re on our hike and swim to Rainbow and Turtleback falls. Plus if there is the time we’ll finish…
