Whit Patterson

Whit is originally from Auburn (War Eagle) but grew up in nowheresville South Carolina. He came from a family of green thumbs and a ma that urged him to explore and reach his dreams. After a love for the outdoors was established in Boy Scouts early in life, it was rediscovered through geology field work and trips out west.

He currently attends University of South Carolina, where he studies geology. Living in the city lights is definitely not his style and hopes to break away from the city as soon as possible. Ramblin' has become a part of life and the western skies do nothing but feed that hunger.

Little more than 6 months ago Whit got a visit from a SCA recruiter, Gary, who told him that he could find himself working his way up the PCT for 6 months. With that in mind Whit decided to leave those city lights to join a movement and to take perhaps the biggest leap of faith he had ever made.

When he is not ramblin' through the woods and the Appalachian mountains, he can be found exploring any and every kind of music, road trippin' and keeping up with his beloved Auburn Tigers.
