Help our team reach our goal!
This summer, my team will take part in 48 peaks to honor the memory and recent loss of my grandmother to Alzheimer’s. 4K4Carolina will be hiking Mt. Pierce on Saturday June 20th. We will approach the summit by the Crawford path, and then take the Webster Cliff trail down to Mizpah Hut. We hope to rendezvous with friends and family at the hut who aren't quite up for the climb to Pierce Summit.
We will begin our hike at the Crawford Path Trailhead on 302. Anyone joining us should park near the Highland center. This is a beginner friendly route at 5.8 total miles with water and bathrooms available at the hut. Our main group will hike at a gentle pace and no one will be left behind who doesn’t want to be.
Please feel free to join us or make a donation if you have also been affected by the disease. I am happy to answer any questions, so don’t hesitate to reach out.
Why We Hike:
Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States. Over 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, and over 11 million are acting as their caregivers.
We are hiking for all those affected while raising funds and awareness to advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s.
Right now, there is no shortage of ideas in Alzheimer’s research — only dollars. But together, we can help change that. Alzheimer’s touches all of us, and it will take all of us to end it. Please consider hiking and fundraising with us or making a donation. Thank you!
