Join the Co-op for a more casual hike late morning and into the afternoon. Plan for 6 miles along the Patoka River and through mixed hardwood and pine forest. We'll hike two 3-mile trails. Both hikes are moderately easy with gentle (but lengthy) inclines. We’ll eat lunch on the trail.

Experience a magical night hike at Angel Mounds. Enjoy a serene, family-friendly walk under the moonlit sky—perfect for beginners and nature lovers alike.

Beat the heat by staying inside... or underground. No experience is necessary, but some equipment will be required, along with a sense of adventure! We'll spend 4-5 hours underground.

Marshall, Indiana boasts two of Indiana's best parks. Sandstone canyons, bluffs, and deep ravines along the Sugar Creek make Turkey Run and Shades State park a winning combination this weekend. We'll camp two nights at nearby Racoon SRA, just 30 minutes from each park.

Celebrate Labor Day with a casual hike near Mt. Vernon, Indiana. We'll check out the cool boardwalk at Twin Swamps nature preserve, which meanders though a cypress swamp. This 1.5mi hike will wrap up in about an hour.

Join the us bright and early Sunday for a day packed with fun at Hemlock Cliffs in the Hoosier National Forest. We'll start by rappeling, then we'll hike the loop afterward. If we still have energy, we'll then move over to Messamore Cliffs for a larger rappel!

I want to check out an area called Boone Creek Barrens (more info) in the Hoosier National Forest -- it's a unique area with patches of rocky ground and meadows, but no trails. Come explore with us on our first visit to the area. Who know what we'll find?

Paddle with us at Blue Grass, Otter Pit. 

Cave enthusiasts gather from across the country each year to attend Indiana's signature caving event. Come join the Co-op for another epic weekend of caving!

Beat the heat with a day on Kentucky Lake. We'll launch kayaks into Pisgah Bay and explore the cove, then find a cool spot to swim. Bring your yak, your swimsuit, and lunch.
