Want to say you have conquered CORE’s longest 3-day backpacking trip that features incredible views? Face the 17-mile Pinhoti-Skyway Loop Trail on this beast of a trip that will teach you to overcome even life’s greatest challenges. While this is one of our more rigorous trips, don’t let that intimidate you from registering; a little teamwork goes a long way. We will depart early Friday morning and will return late Sunday night.
