πŸ“£πŸ’πŸ₯ΎNew trail regulations: As of today, all hikers participating in the 2026 hiker challenge must wear an official STA challenger T-shirt when hiking on the Sheltowee Trace to identify yourself as a participant. You may purchase your shirt on the website (see the link below). πŸ“£πŸ“£πŸ“£***Steve will not let you on the shuttle without your shirt. 🐒🐒🐒

If you include a sticker in your order, you will be entered in a raffle to sit in the front seat in the shuttle van!

Weekend in the Life of a Hiker Challenger: Section 3, Day 1, Part 2.
The Red Barn to Corner Ridge Road. Filmed March 14th, 2026.

The road walking begins. Asphlat, dirt, gravel, asphalt, to dirt. This is just a preview of what lies south of Red River Gorge. Road walks are for the birds. They are made better with good company.

Stay tuned for Section 3 Day 2 as we drop into the Red. Arches, river crossings, and scrambles...oh my.

Volunteers are needed to help us complete the Rugby-Burnt Mill Extension of the Sheltowee Trace NRT.

This is the first of six workdays in 202. The first will take place on Friday, March 27, from 8 am until 4 pm.

Volunteers can come in Thursday night for free camping at Brooks Campground and Store. There will be a hearty breakfast served to volunteers before heading out to the trail area (be at Brooks by 7am ET for breakfast). Volunteers will need to complete waivers for the Park Service and the STA (provided at Brooks) and should be prepared for the weather, wear long pants and shirts. Bring gloves and wear closed toed shoes. Sorry no pets.
