Hidden Yellow Brick Road

We headed to the mountains this weekend to escape the post-inauguration craziness. On the slopes, nobody wants to bore you with politics. 

The backside of Beech Mountain Resort is called Oz. As you head over from the summit to Oz Run, you can catch a glimpse of the yellow brick road from the Land of Oz, the only Wizard of Oz theme park in the world. Despite what Vice tells you on Facebook, the park is not abandoned. It is open on select weekends in the summer, every year in the fall during Autumn at Oz and best of all — it's always open to private tours with a little planning.

If you want to check out Beech Mountain Resort for some skiing or the Land of Oz for a little adventure, check out our Beech Mountain chalet, Slopeside.
