What is National Hike With A Geek Day?
Going beyond desk work, National Hike with a Geek Day on June 20th has compelled the technologists, geeks, IT gurus, and gamers to take a walk through nature's stunning landscapes.

The day isn't limited to the tech-savvy who code in code. Nor is it limited to emoticon-loving, web-surfing fact finders. You obviously meet the requirements for this holiday if you've ever texted your significant other from another room or checked to see if Alexa has the ability to restart the dryer. Both as a way to unplug from technology and to re-engage with the people around them, #HikeWithAGeekDay encourages those who can pronounce osmium correctly the first time, number crunchers, and every field of scientific research to refresh and stretch their horizons.
The summer solstice is also on June 20th. It's the perfect time to grab your nearest, dearest geek, and plunge into the neighboring wilderness for some adventure.
