Bike, Hike, and Paddle

****************************************************************************************************************************
From January of 1996 to October of 2008, this site was called "Chuck's Backpacking Bonanza" and was hosted on AOL until they ceased such hosting. Over the years, I expanded the site to include much more than only backpacking, so the name is now Bike, Hike, and Paddle. Enjoy my efforts!

Sierra Club Outings

John Muir, founder of The Sierra Club, strongly believed that America's finest natural areas could best be protected by taking members out into these areas, for after having experienced them, the people would willingly work to preserve and protect these areas. The Sierra Club therefore sponsors a wide variety of outings each year and I have participated in several.
  • 2002 -- Trail Service Project in the Superstition Wilderness in Arizona's Tonto National Forest
  • 2003 -- Kayaking the Suwannee River in Florida
  • 2003 -- Backpacking Indiana's Hoosier National Forest
  • 2004 -- Kayaking Canaveral National Seashore in Florida
  • 2004 -- Alaska Autumn Sampler (hiking, camping, and backpacking)
  • 2005 -- Trail Service project: Cape Cod National Seashore in Massachusetts
  • 2006: Kayaking Florida's Greatest Rivers and Springs
  • 2006: Kayaking in the Shadows of the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina
