These mountains are highly known in the East but contrary to belief they are a fairly low mountain range. They consist of many valleys and ridges. But besides that they are known for the longest foot path for hiking, that runs from Georgia to Maine. Also another fact about this area is that there a lot of native American Indian tribes residing here.
In regards to geography, it is known to be the dividing line between the east and the west. Over 400 million years ago they were the highest peaks however today that is not the case. This range also has rivers running through it which is very rare for younger ranges. These mountains are also highly forested and are home to 5 different types of squirels, black bears, raccoons, woodchucks, bob cats, and grey foxes. While we are in the topic of animals there are also rare wild turkeys and ruffed grouse what ever that is :) If you are squeemish of animals and wilderness I do not suggest visiting these mountains. If you love the outdoors and are looking for history and beautiful views and nature, this is a must see in your lifetime.
Many people from NY vacation in Appalachia.
Because this area was and is still somewhat populated by Indians I decided to display some fashionable Indian inspired garments!
