When you see it at the trailhead parking lot or on the back of someone’s pack, the Unity Blaze is symbol of inclusion and a message of treating everyone, everywhere, equally. 🔥 🪵

Worked on wayfinding up atop Little Green! It’s starting to looks like fall at higher elevations.

The beautiful indoor and outdoor scenery of Panthertown stakeholders talking impacts with the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics! Thank you Stewardship Team!

It’s Hot Spot Activation Week!!🔥Friends of Panthertown and community partners welcome the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics!

In response to recent heavy rainfall resulting from Tropical Storm Fred, many parts of Panthertown Valley have been impacted. In the interest of resource protection, visitors are encouraged to use caution on trails around waterfalls as water levels are higher than usual and soil conditions are soggy and can be unstable. Creek crossings may be impassable and mud on your boots is a guarantee. A full trails assessment is in the works. Please use caution!

@panthertownvalley is one of just 10 locations receiving critical support from the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics through its Hot Spots program in 2021. Let’s join together to strengthen our stewardship efforts to ensure we are preserving and protecting this special resource! Check out panthertown.org/hotspot for more info. #panthertown #panthertownvalley #leavenotrace #nantahalanationalforest @leavenotracecenter @discoverjacksonnc

🌳Volunteers and organizations working together for Panthertown Valley!

The Stew Crew out today taking care of all the hanging limbs, briars waiting to hug you, and tall grass on the north end of Powerline Road Trail. Ready for horses, mountain bikes, and hikers, and just in time for snake season!

Happy National Trails Day from Friends of @panthertownvalley #nationaltrailsday

Our volunteers work as pretty as Mountain Laurel in full bloom! Three workdays happened since I last posted with more efforts on Macs Gap, Panthertown Valley Trail and Green Valley! Looking good out there folks.

🌳 Thursdays Trailside Trillium brought to you by the Panthertown Stew Crew on Mac’s Gap Trail. A fun and gorgeous day out giving back to our public lands here in Western NC! Thank you volunteers 🙏 (if you squint your eyes the trillium looks more in focus, but we know it’s really all about those good looking volunteers behind it)
