An organized program for hiking the forty 6000 foot peaks in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. 

The South Beyond 6000 is an organized program to encourage hikers to climb the 40 peaks over 6000 feet in the Southern Appalachians. The privilege of belonging is earned and can only be shared among those who have pushed onward and upward on foot to the tops of these peaks. The Tennessee Eastman Hiking and Canoeing Club started this program after they had studied similar concepts used in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and the Adirondack Mountains in New York.
