Celebrate International Women’s Day with a hike and trail workday 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 9, at Cold Mountain Trailhead in Panthertown Valley Backcountry Recreation Area. 

This partnership hike with Girls Who Hike NC will cover about 3.5 miles, with half a mile of that being a steep incline to reach the top of Little Green Mountain. The group will do some tread maintenance on the Panthertown Valley Trail before heading up Little Green Mountain for lunch at Tranquility Point, which offers one of the best views of the valley.

Wear closed-toed, sturdy shoes and long pants. All equipment will be provided, as well as snacks and beverages. RSVP at panthertown.org/events.
