If you’re looking to do something different but familiar, bold but basic, outdoorsy but not too sweaty, hazardous but relaxing, and generally the perfect mix of wholesome fun and beer-drinking bash, then this MTrek is the one for you. This Trek to Asheville, NC, and the surrounding area is designed to strike a balance between outdoorsy and bar hopping in the Brewery capital of the Southeast and one of the quirkiest cities in America.
This MTrek will be centered around Whitewater Rafting, soaking up the beauty of nature, and trying some of the best beers in the country. Packing a lot of activities and movement in a short time, this trek may feel like a whirlwind but have no doubt that it will be a blast.
This will be a great way to get to know your new classmates as you will learn who’s a good cook, scared of spiders, makes Smores properly, is good at listening to directions, is a beer snob, and a whole host of other things that will surely come in handy as you pick partners for your classes this semester.
