We're getting a lot of website traffic from outside of our "normal" service area. If you see an event or class you are interested in, but can't make it out to us, message us. We may be able to schedule one for your group in your area. If you are interested in booking a private expedition (yoga, kayak, or backpacking) with one of our guides, we can do that too!

Our van is the real workhorse of this company. This 2012 #Ford #Econoline #van was purchased a few years ago, and has been heavily modified including #Thule storage boxes (top and rear), and #aluminnessproducts roof rack and ladder rack. Since we purchased this we have put about 20,000 miles on it with no signs of slowing down. #truenorthexp #explorewithus #getoutdoors #getsocial #midwest https://www.instagram.com/p/CHp_LV7liJx/?igshid=j4vnffs8tvlz

Waiting at Unicoi Gap for our group that is currently #backpacking the first 52.5 miles of the Appalachian Trail. Had a little extra time on my hands, what else to do......pick up people's trash. During the course of this trip I've had some time to kill between meeting up with the group, so I've been stopping at the #waysides and #overlooks collecting trash. #georgia #truenorthexp #trashcollector #unicoigap #swallowcreek #georgiadepartmentofnaturalresources #itstherightthingtodo #AT #appalachiantrail #nobo #sectionhiker https://www.instagram.com/p/CEz3JcxlZuQ/?igshid=y453wkr4hc7x

This week we are on the #AppalachianTrail doing a combination slackpack/backpack trip. These #women have been doing an amazing job putting mile after mile behind them. Starting at #SpringerMountain they have already hiked 32.4 miles in 3 days, including a 17 mile day yesterday in the heat and humidity that Georgia is notorious for. Earlier today they meticulously combed through their packs doing the best they could to cut ounce after ounce.... #backpackers growing in ability right before our eyes! That's one of the reasons this business exists and it feels good to see them develop so quickly. We even caught back up with "Tag a long, aka Stray Cat" this evening. Super proud of this group and the #tramily they have developed so quickly! #slackpack #backpacking #neelgap #ravenwilderness #whiteblaze #sectionhiker #georgia #getoutdoors #getsocial #truenorthexp (at Raven Cliffs Wilderness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEuyOLzltuM/?igshid=1cwq3p91p7bfs

Our first aid kit from @surviveware is getting a little bit of a workout this trip tending to blisters. We've added @sawyerproducts Blist-o-Ban adhesive bandages to our kit as well as a few other speciality items. (at Suches, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEthf0alzi8/?igshid=1gzj2ov8vifmb

Part of responsibley guideing people on our events is making sure we have the proper safety gear. The waterproof First Aid kit from @surviveware and our throw bags from @nrsweb made great companions on our recent trip to #BWCA in the #superiornationalforest #minnesota. We have recently upgraded our First Aid kits and we glad we found #Surviveware. Our FA kits got a goodnworkout on this trip as we handled a number of minor injuries such as cuts and blisters.

When you spend enough time outdoors you see a lot of different views of nature. Some of them slip your mind from time to time, and then there are some that sit in front of your memory as if you are still there. Travel along with us in September as we backpack the VA triple crown. https://www.truenorthexp.com/events/virginia-triple-crown-at #backpacking #hiking #nature #photoop #wellness #virginiaisforhikers #at #appalachiantrail #whiteblaze #truenorthexp #truenorthcommunity (at Appalachian Trail In Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCYpL9uFV1Q/?igshid=hvwe8unh8i8n

Nothing makes our hearts happier than seeing the smiles on our guest's faces over the course of the weekend. During our last Beginner's Backpacking Bootcamp we had the pleasure to host a few different groups of people, a mother and her two daughters, a father and daughter, a father son combo, as well as a mother and her daughter-in-law. What an honor it is to be able to share this experience with them, as well as the entire group. We cherish these memories and look forward to seeing the new members of our #truenorthcommunity again soon. #backpacking #midwest #missouri #missourioutdoors #osprey #jetboil #cascadedesigns #dreamhammock #dutchware #granitegear #blackdiamond #ursack #opsack #sawyer #yoga #nature #nationalforest #marktwainnationalforest #truenorthexp (at Bell Mountain Wilderness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBp6aYyl8to/?igshid=1mk7uwmpxrekx

"Combine soft red sandstone, rushing mountain streams, and a few million years of erosion, and the result is the fantastic formations of Kentucky's Red River Gorge Geologic Area (RRGGA). Nestled within Daniel Boone National Forest, the area is decorated by more than 80 natural arches (the greatest concentration of natural arches east of the Rocky Mountains), hidden waterfalls, and rock "houses" (overhangs once used for shelter by the Shawnee and other native tribes). It's a photographer's paradise." https://www.backpacker.com/stories/kentucky-s-red-river-gorge Travel with us in May as we visit the Red! https://www.truenorthexp.com/events/backpacking-yoga-and-kayaking-red-river-gorge-ky (at Red River Gorge Geological Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8JoFswhD8O/?igshid=1svc296xmf3vh
