Exploratory hike Pump Gap
Jan 9 @ 10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Ingles Weaverville · Weaverville, NC

I’ve done part of this hike and it’s nice but I haven’t done the Pump Gap section. So I don’t know what this part of the trail is like other than it will be downhill and probably rocky. It should be about 3.5 miles one way but could be more.

This is a car shuttle hike meaning we leave cars at each end of the trail head. The hike is located in the Hot Springs so we could possibly have a meal after (but would be based upon COVID restrictions).

Let’s meet at the Ingles in Weaverville (the one across the street from Publix) at 9:45 with a departure at 10 a.m. Park near the gas station, road side. I have a white Hyundai. Suggested car pool donation is $5 each. If you carpool please wear a mask in the car and bring hand sanitizer.

We will drive out to the trailhead in Hot Springs, leave a car and then drive back up to the other trailhead. This part will involve carpooling so please make sure you are ok with that.

Once hiking, we immediately start uphill and this is one of the hardest parts of the hike but it’s short. We will travel along the AT with a gentle uphill most of the way, but it is scenic.

Eventually we will come to the intersection with the Pump Gap trail and take it back down to the trail head. Who knows what the trail holds? It’s about 1 mile down this section.

Please wear proper hiking shoes, hiking poles are recommended. We won’t be stopping for lunch so bring a snack if you want. Don’t forget the water.

I don’t put attendee limits on my hikes so you don’t have to worry about having a spot. Therefore, you can sign up a day before the hike.

2020 broke all of our hearts. Come channel that rage into a good cause at our second-annual Cupid is Stupid Car Smashing on Saturday, Feb. 13 from 3-6pm in our Big Top taproom’s parking lot. You get 5 hits for $5 or 15 hits for $10 with your choice of bludgeoning device from our arsenal. All proceeds from the event will be split between the USBG National Charity Foundation and the North Carolina Restaurant Workers Relief Fund. So come out, play your favorite angry song, and get to swinging. You know you need this after the past year we’ve had.
If you want to have a whack at it, sign-ups must be done in person during the event at the check-in table outside. Time slots will be first come first served. Protective eyewear will be provided and sanitized between each use. Participants must wear protective gloves, so feel free to bring your own, but we will have heavy-duty gloves to use as well as disposable rubber gloves to wear under them. Social distancing and COVID-19 safety measures must be followed at all times. We recommend getting a table or reserving an igloo while you wait for your turn.
