Where Rivers Are Born Two GREAT ranges of mountains sweep southwestward through Ten­ nessee, the Carolinas, and Georgia. Centering largely in these mountains in the area where the boundaries of the four States converge are five national forests — the Cherokee, Pisgah, Nantahala, Chattahoochee, and Sumter. The more eastern of the ranges on the slopes of which thesefo rests lie is the Blue Ridge which rises abruptly out of the Piedmont country and forms the divide between waters flowing southeast and south into the Atlantic Ocean and northwest to the Tennessee River en route to the Gulf of Mexico. The southeastern slope of the ridge is cut deeply by the rivers which rush toward the plains, the top is rounded, and the northwestern slopes are gentle. Only a few of its peaks rise as much as a mile above the sea. The western range, roughly paralleling the Blue Ridge and connected to it by transverse ranges, is divided into segments by rivers born high on the slopes between the transverse ranges.

  • NATIONAL FOREST Land of the Noon Day Sun Welcome to the Nantahala National Forest
    NANTAHALA NATIONAL FOREST land of the noon day sun Welcome to the Nantahala National Forest. This forest lies in the mountains and valleys of southwestern North Carolina. Elevations in the Nantahala National Forest range from 5,800 feet at Lone Bald in Jackson County to 1,200 feet in Cherokee County along Hiwassee River below Appa- lachian Lake Dam. The Nantahala National Forest is divided into four districts: Cheoah, Tusquitee, Wayah, and Highlands. A district ranger manages each district. All district names come from the Chero- kee language, except the Highlands District. “Nantahala” is a Cherokee word meaning “land of the noon day sun,” a fitting name for the Nantahala Gorge, where the sun only reaches to the valley floor at midday. With over a half million acres, the Nantahala is the largest of the four national forests in North Carolina. Nantahala National Forest was established in 1920 under authority of the 1911 Weeks Act. This act provided authority to acquire lands for national forests to protect water- sheds, to provide timber, and to regulate the flow of navigable streams. In the Nantahala National Forest, visitors Photo by Bill Lea Hikers admire poplars at Nantahala’s Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest. enjoy a wide variety of recreational activi- ties, from off-highway vehicle riding to While permits are required for trail use in the Great Smoky camping.
