Just outside of Pennyrile State Resort Park, the newly rehabilitated Macedonia Trails have recently reopened after tornado damage in December 2021 forced their closure. The redesigned bike trail system offers a fresh layout with some new trails to explore!

The weather this weekend is perfect! Highs in the mid-60s and lows in the mid-40's. I'm planning to hike the 16mi loop over two days, starting Saturday Morning and wrapping up Sunday afternoon. I'll hike counter-clockwise from the noted parking area.

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.

After our overnight campsite at Jackson Falls, we'll head an hour west to check out the Little Grand Canyon.

After our day hike at Jackson Falls, we'll set up camp nearby in the dispersed camping area.

Spring is here! Grab the boots -- we're goin' outside! Let's venture westward to Jackson Falls in the Shawnee National Forest. In addition to the picturesque waterfall, expect towering sandstone bluffs, babbling creeks, and all the fresh greenery that makes spring my favorite season!

Along with the warm, wet weather, spring brings on an entirely novel adventure. Morel hunting! These mushrooms are prized for their culinary use, though finding them is always a challenge. Join us we learn how to identify, collect, and prepare morels! If we're lucky enough to find some, I'll have a stove so we can cook them at the picnic shelter.

Join us for a morning hike at Jeffreys Cliffs, where you'll explore the base and top of dramatic sandstone plateaus. The trail winds over dirt and rocky paths and includes sections of light bouldering, making it perfect for hikers looking for a moderately challenging adventure with scenic views.

Kick off the week the right way with a casual stroll with your fellow Evansville Outdoors friends!

This 4-day, 3-night backpacking trip meanders around the Wilderness areas of Garden of the Gods and Buzzard Roost. We'll aim to keep daily mileage low, around 6 miles per day over three days and three nights.
