Join us for our annual Dad’s Day Cleanup. A family friendly afternoon of cleaning up trash and flood debris. Volunteers will meet in VC Park and spread the love up and downriver. Cleanup from 1-3. Trash bags provided. Bring waders if you have them.
Valle Crucis Community Park's summer concert series is back and on July 27, MountainTrue and the Watauga Riverkeeper will be sponsoring the show with headliners, the Worthless Son-in-Laws!
As we look ahead to the release of a new forest management plan for the Pisgah and Nantahala National Forests and also a design plan for the I-26 Connector Project, we hope you'll stand with us to ensure these plans keep our forest and urban communities resilient and sustainable for the future! This event is free to all MountainTrue members and all are welcome to contribute $30 to become a member and join us for the event.
The Watauga Riverkeeper and MountainTrue are combating sediment erosion in our local waterways. Sediment is a major polluter in our river basin, clogging fish and aquatic habitats, increasing water temperatures, and transporting toxic substances. We are helping to reduce the amount of sediment that flows into our rivers by planting live-stakes along eroding riverbanks. These stakes will grow into trees that will stabilize the sides of the rivers and creeks where we plant them, and will reduce the overall amount of sediment getting into the river. So, come hop in a boat, or wade and help us reduce erosion along our local rivers!

Join us for the premier all-women adventure film festival featuring short films about women adventurers who will inspire you with their tenacity, their spunk and their femininity - all working to redefine what it means to be a woman in adventure, sport and film. Preceding the films, we will host a panel discussion featuring local women adventurers who will share their passions for outdoor pursuits and their commitment to protecting the rivers, mountains, and forests where they do their thing.
