American Pioneer Corps is a military, veteran, and law enforcement founded and led non-profit organization dedicated to education and public service.

We will have the first hike for 2025 at the Flint Hills Nature Trailhead near Council grove February 1st @ 1:00.

Location here.

The hike will be 6 miles, 3 out and 3 in.

Standard Pack weight is 45 lbs.  We will not be carrying rifles at this event.

This hike is designed to be an opportunity to test your pack on easy ruck and make adjustments for future events.  We will be having a range day 2 weeks from this hike where participation in at least one hike is required. This would be the one to make.

Please IM, reply here or email me at [email protected] if you would like to attend.

It's not about if you win or lose. It's about how many rules they have to add afterwards.

We did this location a couple years ago didn't we?  For anyone considering it this is an extremely beginner friendly trail hike on a converted rail line.

Yes sir.  This one is our first each year because of the ease. Lots of margin for error.

Chris,

Thanks for putting this together. It got me off my ass for half a day and got me out to try new things. Let's do it again next month!

An FYI because we talked about it. It wasn't Kansas as I had previously thought, it was Illionois.
