Adventurous Ideas For The N.C. Holiday Travelers
North Carolina offers a
wealth of outdoor adventure
to holiday travelers - from
the coastal woods of the
Pamlico River to the historic
sights of Buncombe County. If
you are looking for some ways
to make your holiday a little
more special and, perhaps,
somewhatdifferent, here are
some ideas.
Consider a visit to one of
North Carolina’s coastal
parks, where migratory birds
and waterfowl abound. Mer
chans Millpond State Park in
Gates County rents canoes to
visitors who wish to view the
whistling swans and many
types of ducks first hand.
Goose Creek State Park in
Beautfort County has a
number of boardwalks and an
observation deck which pro
vides visitors a panoramic
view of the Pamlico River and
of migratory waterfowl.
In fact, winter is an ideal
time to visit and enjoy all
North Carolina state parks
and recreational areas. The
parks are open year round
with limited facilities during
the winter months. The bare
woods make spotting animals
and birds easy. Family camp
sites are rented at a reduced
rate of $3.50 per night and,
with fewer people in the park
areas, everyone has a better
chance of getting a prime site.
If your holidays will be
spent in piedmont North
Carolina, you can enjoy the
December sights, sounds, and
smells of Christmas time long
ago which will be recreated in
the restored Moravian town of
Old Salem. Visitors may walk

enjoy the unhurried, warm
hearted atmosphere of the
town as it was nearly 200
years ago.
The eleventh annual tour of
Historic Oakwood in Raleigh
takes place December 11 and
12. Six turn-of-the-century
homes in the 20-block historic
district will be featured. Tour
admission is $5.00 for adults,
$3.00 for students and
children.
Western travelers may
wish to take advantage of the
1830 Christmas celebration at
the Appalachian home of the
dynamic “War Governor of
the South” - Zebulon B.
Vance. The Weaverville home
will be decorated in 1830
Christmas decorations and
tour guides will be in period
costumes. The home will open
December 1-24, except Mon
days. The official open house
will be December 12.
For many sportsmen, Out
doors North Carolina means
hunting. If deer hunting is
your sport, here are a few tips
from the Wildlife
Commission:
1. Have your appropriate
licenses and permits;
2. Scout the area before the
season opens;
3. Know your rifle, or bow
or muzzleloader;
4. Be out early; deer begin
moving well before sunrise;
5. Don’t be a fair-weather
sportsman. Deer can’t see or
smell well in cold drizzle, so
this is an excellent time to
hunt;
6. Be careful, and wear blaze
orange clothing. Is that a deer
you hear approaching or
another hunter? Be careful.
For those of you who will
not be venturing far from
home, but who want to bring
a little of Outdoors North'
Carolina inside, the selection
and decoration of a North
Carolina Christmas tree can
be a holiday highlight.
The Division of Forest
Resources encourages you to
select a tree that is fresh and
the fresher the better. Feel
the needles. If they feel dry or
brittle, or if the needles fall off
easily when you shake the
tree, don’t buy it. The firs are
generally the longest lasting,
especially the Fraser and No
ble Firs. These trees maintain
their foliage for 6 to 8 weeks
after cutting, so they are
perfect for the entire holiday
season. Also, you need to keep
the tree well watered and
away from heat sources.
You could wake up this
winter to the honking of geese
and ducks or to the smell of
fresh brewed coffee by a
warm campfire-if you don’t
hibernate.
