Nestled between Little and Big Sandy Mush Balds, at an elevation of over 5,000 feet above sea level, lies one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited in the Blue Ridge Mountains; The Cabins at Sandy Mush Bald, an off-grid and authentic Appalachian experience, located on 500 private acres atop the Newfound Mountains in Western North Carolina.
The Cabins at Sandy Mush started as a dream of the founder, John “Doc” Adler who longed to create a hike-in facility that provided a sense of hard-earned awe just like he found on the Appalachian Trail and at other infamous hike-in facilities.
“Doc” passed away a couple of years ago, but his spirit and the splendor of this place lives on through his niece, Lisa Adler, who I had the distinct pleasure to sit down with in this episode. I was only on the mountain for a few hours, but it stirred something deep in my soul, and a longing to return.
