Catch of a Lifetime vs GRASS
in the Tri-Cities, TN
The closest thing to us on the market. GRASS pairs people around outdoor invites; Catch builds the standing community those invites come from.
In the Tri-Cities, TN
the Tri-Cities, TN is Kingsport, Johnson City and Bristol, sitting right up against the Appalachian Trail, South Holston Lake and Watauga Lake — real trailheads, not just a market. It's one of the first metros Catch of a Lifetime opens in.
The short answer
GRASS is an outdoor dating app for hikers and active people: you tag activities, post or answer open invites through its FindBuddy feature, and meet on real hikes and runs rather than swiping. It is the closest competitor to Catch of a Lifetime. The difference is structural: GRASS centres on the invite between individuals, while Catch centres on the tribe — a standing group with its own live campfire chat, recurring events and shared map — so there is somewhere to belong between trips.
