Lush green forests, mountain trails and a world class river make the Ocoee River in southeastern Tennessee a perfect adventure sports paradise. It’s common to see 250,000 whitewater kayakers and rafters paddle the Ocoee each year and exponentially more drivers checking out the action along the adjacent road. Unfortunately, with the crowds also come trash. Lots of it. But a group of kayakers from Atlanta have rallied around the cause and pride themselves on cleaner rivers.

Coming off a short summer break, I recently heard a fun NPR story about Stacations. Upon further thought, not only does Chattanooga offer fantastic staycation options, it’s easy to make them Green while saving some green.

But then you probably haven’t seen the first RV built on an electric hybrid chassis.
