Black men of all experience levels — never-hiked-a-day to seasoned backcountry. You don't need gear. You don't need experience. You need to be a Black man who is ready to show up for himself and for his brothers.
When you join the chapter, you pledge one thing: no man left behind. On the trail, that's literal — you don't leave a struggling brother. Off trail, it becomes the foundation of every relationship you build here.
Fill out the form above. Tell us where you are, where you're starting from. No experience needed. Honesty required.
Your chapter lead matches you with a brother who has been where you are. He answers your questions, walks you through the first steps, and brings you in right.
You show up. You meet the line. You walk with the chapter. It doesn't matter how far or how fast — what matters is that you were there when it counted.
The crossing is your first significant hike with the chapter — the one that tests you. When you reach the other side, you are no longer a visitor. You are a brother on the line.
