Outdoorsy-ness

<p>Are Davidson students outdoorsy? I don't know much about Davidson's part of North Carolina.</p>

<p>Well Escape, with 32 Division 1 sports teams or some crazy number like that, and only 1700 students, Davidson students are active people. There are also Cross Country / walking trails in a nice wooded area right on campus. There is a lake campus where a lot of fun events take place. One of the more prominent student organizations on campus is Davidson Outdoors which sponsers weekend trips and major trips during vacations. Depending on your Outdoors needs I think there are mountains within an hours drive from campus. So while Davidson isn't positioned on the side of a mountan, you will find Davidson students to be one of the most active student bodies amoung schools of its academic caliber.</p>

<p>Well said Orangelights -- there is a very active outdoor club and some great mountains, caves and rivers not too far away. Davidson Outdoor (DO) is very active</p>
