Appalachia - The Endless Forest - Go Wild

[@dianahardy7916]

I am from New Zealand and have travelled the world. The 5 weeks we spent in and around the Apalachians and surrounding states will forever be special and sacred memories.

[@stormysyndrome7043]

Born and raised in these hills. Joined the Air Force and was away for 27 years and saw the world along with what it offered. At no point did I find an area as temperate, and as beautiful at the same time. Once you come to know these mountains, you'll forever have a calling to return. Thought I could just up and leave and never miss it.... I was dead wrong.

Hope you were able to return to where your heart calls home.

[@darleneperry9772]

I really liked your presentation, the area is a total new view of these wonderful mountains. I like that there were not hordes of humans walking up and down streets with little to no care for the preservation of their surroundings. I would like to see others present the beauty of the States when I go to look at them not man made things that are used for the increase of wealth of themselves. I now an older person and would have liked to seem some of the beauty of our great country but my youth and finances have both past and so I search to see these places on KZbin. To bad they all are not as great as your presentation.

Hundreds of hikers walk that Trail in both directions from Maine to Georgia. It has become quite the 'thing to do' over the past few years in particular. I just recently discovered my Cherokee and Mattaponi heritage. My mother's family has a farm in N Carolina and I spent my summers there from age 6 to 14 (1966-1974). They are my fondest and most cherished memories. I am working on reacquiring that land for my grandchildren because I want them to be able to have that experience. There's nothing like being out in nature...nothing. ___________________________________________________________

[@eaglescout1984]

I was born and raised in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains and spent many summer trips exploring the vastness of the Appalachians. The feeling of being miles from civilization among the cool crisp mountain air under the canopy of hardwoods as you tread across the rocky soil is a feeling you will never forget. I have moved for work, but didn't move too far. I know I will always want to be among the mountains and look forward to the next time I'm taking in all they have to offer. If you ever have the chance to visit the eastern United States, be sure to put the Shenandoah National Park, Blue Ridge Parkway, and/or Great Smokey Mountains National park on your list just under all the major historic sites. And be sure to stop by the town of Cherokee, NC where people like Bushyhead have built a thriving community living by their ancestors' ways.

[@theraingod7059]

I was born and raised in Cherokee, I've lived there up until the past few months and I miss it dearly. There ain't another place I've seen in my recent traveling that comes close to that feeling of home and peacefulness. Late nights listening to catydids and watching fireflies to the early morning whippoorwills is something I recommend for anybody.

[@psingerman4778]

Truly beautiful film. But after describing the damage from indiscriminate logging, they neglect to mention strip mining, which devestates not only the forest, but even the mountains themselves.

[@prototropo]

Good point. And though I appreciate the jobs coal and iron brought, the cars and pollution the left are now liabilities to us all.

[@historian3844]

@@prototropo absolutely. Not only does it ruin the landscape but it has polluted the waters and land, and irreversibly impacted the wildlife. Many streams won’t ever have natural populations of trout again because the waters essentially been poisoned for those fragile fish.

@@arcturus9366 it's a place that leaves footsteps on your soul and you long to be back there.....a respite from living life by the clock and the stress of living....to be back there where you breath in the fresh air and walk beside the river, watch the leaves tumble down in fall, a camp fire and toasting marshmallows, sitting by a fireplace looking out at the snow in winter while drinking hot chocolate, swimming and fishing in the summer, watching the forest come back to life in the spring...all the little wildflowers emerging from the ground....ahhhhhh yes...nothing like it....the mountains are calling me home

I was born and raised in the Appalachians of Kentucky. Beautiful! Little to no economic opportunities, but if you just want a simple life and don't need a whole lot, it can be a nice and peaceful place to live. Sadly, there is a major drug problem among many of the people these days, but if you want to get away from it all there are plenty of places to do it.

And moving north through the Cumberland Gap you are walking the Appalachian Trail, through West Virginia and then the corner of Maryland, then just to the east of South Mountain is Gettysburg , the trail Bobby Lee took, then crossing the Susquehanna approaching where I live in the Poconos.

[@silverjinglebobspur1]

@Cali Callaghan the earth, only 6000 years old? I've heard of archaeological findings, dating a bit older. And to say that the mountains didn't connect, is the same as saying that there never was a water flowing on the Saraswati River. I've heard many stories of the having been one land mass, and the rest, one huge ocean. I've seen hills covered with beautiful homes, now, washed away, into the ocean. And their history and science washed away with them. Perhaps it is best to believe, and be thankful for having heard something which promoted some thought.

[@silverjinglebobspur1]

@Cali Callaghan I listened to him. He uses the Bible. Why does he speak so fast? Is this his attempt to dissuade questions? He likes science. Schools allow Bible as literature, why not use them to teach science? Your basis of following the words of Dr Kent, well, he could use a few courses in real science. My god. I wonder if his scientific mind lists apples as the forbidden fruit? We're all poisoned and eternally damned. Mercy.

It used to snow in the Appalachian mountains, at least as far south as southern West Virginia , with substantial accumulation, even in the valleys. Not in pre-historic times, but through the f1940s and '50s. Through the 1980s many waterfalls would freeze, creating beautiful ice formations in running water. Now anything but a dusting that lasts for more than a day or a few is rare there. Notice no snow in the images of 'winter' in the region.

[@stormysyndrome7043]

Normal cycles. We went through a warming cycle with the solar maximum, now we're descending down into a solar minimum. Our area got more snow this winter than we've got since the last solar minimum down curve in the 80's. Just last week we got another 12 inches on top of the 4 inches already standing. Never assume things don't come round... they most assuredly do. As it was before, it shall be again.

The Appellations were once as mighty as the Himalayans today. And have been eroding for a hundred and fifty million years. That erosion has filled valleys with material and built the east coast and west to Ohio and Mississippi. The erosion brought nutrients for plant life which produced top soil. Which produce bigger and more vibrant trees? Almost all of the animal life in the appellations developed here. Evolving as the mountains and plant life evolved. In a million years if there are still humans. They will me amazed at the topography, flora and fauna and animal and insect life that we see today in the Appellations..
