Buladean
is a tiny community located sixty miles northeast of Asheville in the majestic Unaka Mountain Range. It is situated in Mitchell County, which is well known for its incredible scenery and naturally occurring Rhododendron gardens. Buladean is a lovely place to get away from it all, yet a convenient location to many of North Carolina's most exciting attractions. The North Toe River flows through the county and joins the Nolichucky River, known as one of the best whitewater rafting rivers in the country. Just a few of the other activities available in the area include hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, canoe trips and downhill skiing. Buladean is just a short drive to Roan Mountain State Park, Grandfather Mountain, the Appalachian Trail and Linville Falls. One of the richest deposits of gems and minerals in the country is located near Buladean, and the world-famous North Carolina Mineral and Gem Festival is held in neighboring Spruce Pine each August. In June, the North Carolina Rhododendron Festival is held in Bakersville, (which is Mitchell County's largest town with a population of just 2,500.) This region is also home to nearly 100 artisans' galleries and studios. During the annual Toe River Arts Council Studio Tours, you can visit the artists in their working environment. Other nearby points of interest include the Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee, and the spectacular Biltmore House in Asheville, North Carolina.

North Carolina has the greatest range of altitude of any state east of the Mississippi River, ranging from sea level along the Atlantic coast to 6,684 feet at the summit of Mt. Mitchell in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Latitude accounts for climatic variations, as does soils, plant cover and inland bodies of water. There is no distinct wet or dry season in North Carolina. Average snowfall in the southern mountains is around 16 inches, with some of the higher mountain peaks and upper slopes receiving as much as 50 inches per year. July is usually the wettest month. Summer rainfall is the most variable; daily showers are not uncommon, but periods of one to two weeks without rain are also normal. Autumn is the driest season, and also sees the greatest drop-off of temperature in the month of October.
