F.A.T Friends π€ π€
Nature exists to be appreciated and preserved. The F.A.T. exists to do both. The F.A.T. Friends is a movement of like-minded individuals dedicated to creating a community that cares, connects, and protects.
Disaster Response
We Care. Adventure travelers often possess the skills and gear necessary to make a difference when disaster strikes. Over the years, F.A.T Friends have made a significant impact in Florida and North Carolina through disaster response efforts.
Meet Ups
We Connect. One of the many things that make the Overland community great is the people who are part of it. We create opportunities for individuals to connect online, at events, camping trips, and trail rides, with the support of various business partners and our own events.
Preservation
We Protect. We believe that everyone is a Public Land Owner, and that equal access comes with equal responsibility. The FAT Friends work collaboratively to keep trails open through trail cleanups, community engagement, and political action.
The "2 Bag" Challenge
Each person who purchases the GPX files for the F.A.T is asked to participate in the 2 bag challenge. What is the challenge? It's simple. Bring "two bags" when you travel on the F.A.T. One for all of your waste and one for you to clean up what you find along the trail.
