MOUNTAIN GAITWAY
“Mountain Gaitway” was the blog we kept from 2014 through 2017, from the time we purchased and began developing this property until the time High Country Living went live in 2017. This blog had been hosted on “Blogger”, but since we have left all association with Google, these pages have been integrated with High Country Living. Most of the photos were lost in the transfer, but have been found and re-entered. Have fun looking through the pages of “Mountain Gaitway”.
