We at Backcountry Bard define hiking as "a long walk in nature, usually on trails in scenic areas."  While hiking offers physical fitness benefits, it is not our primary mission.  Instead, White-tail Hikers focuses on the mental and spiritual fitness of hiking and fellowship with the group. We look to reconnect with nature to work out whatever we need to within ourselves.  Each hiker is free to go on the trail at their own pace.

Our hikes are defined as "day hikes," which are hikes that are completed in a single day. Typically, we hike between two and six miles, spending anywhere from one to three hours on the trail.
