## Overview

For casual campers we have the Wooded Campsite which is easy to access, and for more experienced campers wanting a little more of a hike we recommend the Secluded Grove campsite. The land from bottom to top of the mountain is designed as a 5 part pilgrimage, and how high up the mountain you can get can be used to evaluate your spiritual and physical fitness. WLCC minister Aron. the campsite host is typically available for Guided pilgrimage hikes and if the weather cooperates, and if your party is tough enough, and doesn't mind a little scrambling and getting dirty, you can also see the mandala cliff cave which only maybe 1 in 5 groups make it to is true test of skill to get there to complete the final step of the pilgrimage. Most campers choose to self explore and there are many beautiful sights to see with trail going up the mountain, or you can just chill with the view of your campsite if you prefer. As you ascend Sand Mountain, the vegetation thins revealing spectacular views of Lookout Mountain especially in the fall & winter months after the leaves have fallen. At the very top of the property are 30+ ft high cliffs. There is a cliff cave that has a colorful collection of lichen growing in it and we have named it our 'Mandala cave', but access is subject to weather and requires Guide to access. If you enjoy bush craft, there is plenty of material for you to build a lean-to, tipi, or structure of choice. Trees range from poplar to multiple species of oak. Natural wildlife include deer, wild turkeys, scorpions, and ticks. Pets are welcome, and be advised we have a male cat who will likely hide if you bring dogs but won't bother you. If you need assistance minister Aron, campsite host lives on site in the custom earthbag parsonage, and is also available for earthbag building workshops and guided hikes for nominal donation of $5. All funds from hipcamp donations go to Whole Life Center Church s.s.m, the Freedom religion ([xxxxxxxx]) for improving religious pilgrimage experience. Our church creed is Freedom is Universal. Through camping and nature you can experience God.

> Exactly as described! We had a GMC SUV with AWD and made it up the hill just fine. (No mud while we stayed, thankfully or we would have walked up) Aron was very kind, and stood around in the 95 degree heat to answer our questions about the area. Great spot, can't recommend enough!

> It was a good trip , I camped at the campsite closest to the road . The camp is as advertised, secluded and at night time I heard several odd noises There are campsites that are further away.. The hike was real nice . Make sure to bring your own food , there’s no good restaurants close by . The road going up is treacherous , the host Will come get you and your gear . I am definitely going up there again.
