Snow scene

Great place to learn some skills on the slopes, in Blowing Rock. They have a ski school, a bunny slope, and some more difficult trails. And an outside ice skating rink. About 25 min from cabin.

Local Yocal— the locals love these places! Not pretty, but practical.
Well, if you need some local milk and eggs, and a little diversion it has been a local staple ever since I have lived here...

Neighborhoods

The High Country does not really have neighborhoods in the traditional sense. This is a section that helps you understand the different places to visit...
Only a 10 minute drive from the cabin, driving down Big Hill Road, follow along the New River. The Todd General Store and Todd Mercantile may be open, but not necessarily. Call first.

Samgöngur

The roads in the High Country can be curvy. Easy does it.

Go around the curves without much acceleration. I grew up learning to drive on straight roads and the mountain curves have given me a 'steep learning curve'.
