Our Challenges are on the Honor System. Therefore you get to pick the location.
The hikes/walks need to be with the intention of getting in miles or an adventure and not your regular daily activities. Our challenges are not simply to accumulate miles/steps, so do not count your regular daily activities. As much as we prefer you hike on a dirt trail, we realize that is not always possible. So urban hikes and paved paths are allowed. Our primary goal with our Challenges is to get people outdoors and outside of their own neighborhood/surroundings to enjoy nature while hiking.
Our challenges aren't merely about racking up "Miles/Steps". They're geared towards genuine outdoor hiking experiences. Everyday activities, like strolls to the mailbox or walking to work, or even family outings like visits to Disney, Epcot, zoos, and festivals, should not be counted unless you embarked on them specifically with this challenge in mind. The heart of our Challenges is to encourage participants to venture beyond their local surroundings/neighborhoods and immerse themselves in the beauty of nature through hiking.

About Us
We are a family-owned business; we are not a non-profit. Both my wife and I are hiker enthusiasts who love the outdoors. This is our way of not only encouraging others to get outdoors and appreciate nature but a way to give back to the hiking community by planting trees. We do not give out financial information, but the registration fee covers marketing, the cost of goods, operating expenses, the planting of trees and a lot of love (labor) that goes into it.
Absolutely! We have teamed up with onetreeplanted.org to have a tree planted for every completed log sheet we receive. We ask that they are planted in one of our National Forests, but we leave it up to them to determine which forest and what type of tree based on the current need.
