Great Smoky Mountains Geography

The Great Smoky Mountains is the mountain range that runs right through the border of Tennessee and North Carolina, stretching Northeast from the Pigeon River to the Southwest at the Little Tennessee River. The mountain range covers approximately 187,000 acres of Cove and Northern Hardwoods, Spruce Trees, and a wide variety of various wildflowers. The Great Smokies got their name as a result of the vapor that rises off of the vegetation on the mountains, creating the fog that many see hanging over the tips of the mountains. Clingman's Dome, located at 6,643 feet above sea level, is considered to be the highest point of the Rocky Mountains. Filled with over 50 types of mammals, hundreds of varieties of fish, and several dozens of different kinds of reptiles, the Smokies are a nature lovers paradise. 

First inhabited and fully populated by the Cherokee, it wasn't until the 17th Century that the English began to stake their claim on the magnificent mountain land. This brought about grave dissension in the land since the Cherokee possessed the legal rights to the land. in 1776, the Cherokee joined forces with the British during the French and Indian war. In response, the American Army attacked the Cherokee territory to obtain rights of the land. full control of the land was given over to the Americans by the year 1805.
