Our destination was a home on Powder Horn Mountain in Deep Gap, NC – in the vicinity of Boone. The house was in a gated mountain community offering us privacy and a short walk to a large pond at the back of the property which had a nice trail around it for walking. It was owned by an acquaintance who was willing to let us take our dogs. The trip up and back was broken up by a stay at the Wyndam Wingate, just off I-95 around Savannah, GA.
