What is the Piked Antler Project?

In short, The Piked Antler Project creates unforgettable adventure experiences through survival-based challenge courses that push your limits, build real teamwork, and reignite grit, respect, and self-worth, in Canton, Waynesville and Clyde of Western North Carolina.

The Piked Antler Project, LLC has locations in Clyde, Canton & Waynesville, NC and was founded in November 2017 by U.S Army Veteran, William White.

LOCAL VETERAN OWNED BUSINESSES THAT WE SUPPORT AND WHO SUPPORT US.

Whether you’re surviving in the forest, the battle field, PTSD or just life, we all need each other at some point. The Warrior Clan and Mountain Man Worx are two local and Veteran owned companies that share a similar mission: To Help, Teach and Protect our community members.

All of us spent time overseas while in the U.S. Military fighting for our country. When we came home, we decided to keep the mission vision going. We all love helping our community members through counsel and teaching, and that is what we do.
