Hi, We’re Mitch and Carrie!

We’ve lived in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Roanoke, VA for many years and we began Blue Ridge Awaits as a way to share our love of the Blue Ridge with others.

We want to help you discover the best hikes, daytrips, mountain towns, scenic drives, and other adventures in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
