This Thursday, June 9th – we will be hiking a clothing optional hike near Asheville and are meeting at 10:30 at the McDonald’s on NC 191, also Brevard Road, in front of The Asheville
The McDonald's at Asheville Outlet Mall, 800 Brevard Road, Asheville, NC - I will be the fellow with gray hair in the kilt if you have not yet met me.
4 of us met in Asheville and the 5th joined us at the trailhead - we hiked a section of the Mountain to Sea Trail south of Pisgah Inn that was gorgeous - trail needed a bit of minor maintenance with some growth of weeds narrowing the trail to 1 slim person on occasion and there were a few spots where the native bushes and low growing trees meant one had to duck a bit but in the 6 miles hiked there were no other folks on the trail so it was never even necessary to cover when meeting folks. Sorry no pics as a couple of the hikers had late afternoon appointments they wanted to get to so stopping for pics was not possible - hopefully next time. The day itself was perfect - low to mid 70's, a nice breeze, no humidity - probably won't see too many more of those till fall in the mountains south of Asheville. The fellows who were on the hike loved it and will look forward to more over the summer - I personally try to get 1 or 2 naked hikes in each week. I hike Monday to Thursday, federal land only away from populated areas and tourist locations. If interested in hiking, contact me as some opportunities come at the last minute and there is not time to post. 2 great upcoming hikes are posted for June 21st and 22nd - sign up!!!
