Summit Outdoor Leadership

09/10/2026

Seeking God while spending time in His creation hits differently, and we all need that time to reflect, retreat and pray. Jesus did it and we’re going to follow Him. We may not have a beanie & a sweatshirt this time, but we will be outside and we will be seeking God together. 3 days, 2 nights. Women’s Campout. October 23-25.

Leave what you find! 🪨

Help stop the cairns. Don’t stack rocks.

Smokies streams aren’t just beautiful spots for visitors to enjoy, they’re thriving wildlife habitats. Cool mountain waters support fish, salamanders, and countless aquatic invertebrates. But these species can only survive when their homes stay undisturbed.

A cairn—an intentionally stacked pile of rocks—might seem harmless, but it’s not.
When rocks are stacked or moved, it destroys the shelters where animals live, hide, and lay eggs. You can help protect these fragile aquatic ecosystems by leaving rocks exactly where you find them.
