Club-Sponsored Thru-Hike!
We've received several requests to organize a thru-hike of the LSHT--and this is it! We expect the last remaining sections of the trail to re-open in early 2025, so it's a celebration of that! Dates are not yet confirmed for the hike, but we need to build a list of interested members. This hike is initially available only to Club Members.
If interested, express your interest as follows:
- Log-in to Club Express
- Go to the Members Area, and Select Forums
- Select "Lone Star Hiking Trail"
- Reply to the Thread: "Thru-Hike 2025: Interested Hikers?" (you will need to join the Forum to reply)
- In your reply, indicate your interest in the hike. You're not committing to it--just showing interest.
What to expect:
- The hike will take place after hunting season, so we'll have more camping alternatives
- We'll organize some water (and possibly food) caches to keep your weight down and to minimize filtering (but this would not be a slack-pack trip).
- 6-7 day moderate pace is expected (13-16 mile days)
- Tent or hammock camping
- It will be led by an experienced thru-hiker.
