NC Mountains

I started my riding life in Wilmington (read=flat). Now I live in Raleigh
(read=rolling hills) and love the hills. This summer I want to ride some
mountains. What are some good ones to start on and what are some of the
more difficult ascents? Also, I have a wife and two kids so not having to
drive far is a big bonus.

TIA
