The Season for Swimming Holes & Tubing!



For many, Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Forest are playgrounds for phenomenal climbing, hiking, biking and camping, but for oodles of people every summer, it is also a fantastic place for swimming holes and some old fashioned tubing! The Davidson River typically has just the right amount of flow to keep you headed back to Looking Glass Outfitters and the gates of the forest without thrashing you about.

Don't forget about:

Sun Protection- Despite the tree canopy, the sun often hits your skin and reflects off the water - perfect conditions for a pair of polarized Smith sunglasses!
Pack your Chacos - These durable sandals protect your feet from sharp rocks and stay snug in the water.
Keep valuables dry and secure - Make sure your keys and camera still work at the end of the day with a Sea to Summit Dry Sack Properly Hydrate - A Klean Kanteen or Sigg bottle can be easily tethered to your tube for easy sipping!

Be Safe & Have a blast!!!
