Come party in Panthertown!! 🎊We are celebrating National Trails Day this Saturday, June 4th, meeting at the Salt Rock trailhead at 9am. Bring a picnic lunch 🥪and get ready to clean up some campsites, enjoy beautiful views, and discoteer in honor of our awesome trails! 💚

Had an awesome workday this past Saturday with the #StewCrew !!! 🥾 Always a great time making sure our trails are as awesome as our volunteers! 🌍🐝🌟🌿🌱🌳

⛈ IT’S SOGGY OUT THERE!! Storm team out last night clearing a hemlock blockage on Powerline Trail. Horse, bike, and hike access now restored. Super thanks to Brendon at @whitedotadventures for the 5 mile hike to bust it out just in time for Memorial Day weekend! Natures rewards of Flame Azaelas and Mountain Laurel along Panthertown Valley ease the hike out 😎 🥾 🪵 🌲

Now that’s a job well done! This weekend, our team of dedicated volunteers spent two days fixing the shelter on the Great Wall trail. We repaired the sunken floorboards and patched up all the holes in the roofing, creating a safe camp environment! Check out our website for upcoming workdays, link in bio!

Another great workday for the books 📚 with an amazing #StewCrew! We worked on the Mac’s Gap and Greenland Creek trails, making sure our trails are sustainable! 🌱 Swipe to check out a rebuild on a section of the Panthertown Valley trail! 🪵🌸🌞🌎🐸🥾

Had another awesome trail work day this past Friday on Mac’s Gap! Our awesome #StewCrew put in the work to make our trails more sustainable for hikers and bikers! #ProtectPanthertown !

Join us for a trail work day this Friday, April 29th! We will be meeting at the Cold Mountain entrance at 9am for some trail maintenance on Mac’s Gap trail! Come get some sunshine on your face and some dirt on your hands! 🌱🌸🌥🍃🌻🐝🐞

We know how to have fun and #protectpanthertown. So much love for the folks taking their free time and energy to help out on the trails 💕✨🌳🥾⚒️

Join us this Friday for a trail work day to celebrate Earth Day!! What better way is there to celebrate our planet than giving back! 🌿🐝🌱🌻⛅️🌎

Friends of Panthertown hosted the Watershed Association of the Tuckasegee River for a macroinvertebrate day! We learned the importance of macroinvertebrates, how to survey for them in streams, and more!

“Big changes are coming to the forests of western North Carolina this year. Real estate in the Panthertown Valley area of Nantahala National Forest is about to become a hot digital commodity.

💗🌳 Congratulations for over 100 hours of volunteer service on the Nantahala National Forest in Panthertown! Blue helmets were awarded for their ongoing dedication. We love our volunteers! Thank you Ross Fogleman and Danny Bottoms! 🙏
