| What is PISGAH? The Pisgah National Forest Google Map The Pisgah National Forest in Western North Carolina is named after Mt. Pisgah. Mt. Pisgah is named after a Holy Land in the Bible. The Land of Milk and Honey. And, how sweet it is. Surrounding The Heart of the South, Asheville, NC, the Pisgah Forest is a micro climate rain forest filled with waterfalls, rainbows and Appalachian history. The elements are brutal. Hot, humid, wind, rain, sleet and snow. It's all here. The Blue Ridge Parkway runs right thru both. The Pisgah National Forest boasts Mt. Mitchell. The highest peak East of the Mississippi at 6604' elevation. The terrain is rocky. We have luscious landscapes filled with beautiful flowing creeks and hypnotizing, soul soothing waterfalls. Ever ride thru a canopy of Laurel? Pisgah is home to many wild animals. Coyote, deer, black bear, turkey, and yes, the eastern mountain lion aka the cougar lurk in the Laurel. Whether you're mountainbiking, cycling, long boarding down the Parkway, kayaking, hiking, camping, riding a horse or testing your motor skills. The Pisgah National Forest will test You. And then there's the views. It can be the most serene and beautiful place in the world. It can also be the place of your worst nightmare. Pisgah demands respect. It will smack you when you let your guard down. You can go out and get lucky a few times. That's when you'd better tighten up your game. "You got enough food and water? Do you have something to protect you from the cold, wind, rain or snow that blow in out of nowhere? Do you have an extra tube, lube or dry gloves? Do you have a chain tool? How about that extra Derailleur hanger? Do you have a gun and a chainsaw? And my favorite, "Do you hear banjos?" Pisgah and Mother Nature go hand-in-hand. Regardless, Pisgah is one of the best places to get out and enjoy nature. "Nature bequeaths its own blessing to those who immerse themselves in it." - Steven Covey |
