In a world of full of complexity and busyness, we all crave a little simplicity. What if we had the chance for a day to unplug from the technology, stress and distractions of our daily lives and connect with God and with others while exploring a wild and rugged piece of His Creation?
Reboot hiking and backpacking adventures are low-cost, fun and welcoming to first-timers. They allow us to catch our breath and refocus. We’ve got the basic gear you need including tents, backpacks, sleeping bags and sleeping pads for overnight trips. We only ask a small fee to cover costs.
Reboot is a chance to:
– Live simply and uncluttered for a couple of days. When you camp on the trail, you must carry all your possessions on your back.
– Meet new friends and have fun and fellowship with other men.
– Get great exercise and build your endurance. We usually hike 7-10 miles over two days.
– Earn the privilege of experiencing Alabama’s most breathtaking sights.
– Eat Conecuh Sausage and not feel guilty. You’ll burn the calories on the trail.
– Take a break from Twitter, Facebook and your constantly buzzing phone.
– Experience a real-life adventure while other men are sitting on the couch watching “Man vs. Wild” or playing video games.
– Most importantly, connect with our Creator by exploring His wild, rugged creation. We do this via stopping and sharing along the trail, an evening campfire discussion and a short time of solitude. All discussions are low-pressure. You can participate as much or as little as you’d like.
