The Blue Ridge Mountains within the Appalachians are some of the oldest land masses in the entire world. They were already ancient when the Himalayas emerged. Some of the deep down bedrock dates from Precambrian and Paleozoic times hundreds of millions of years ago! Glaciers sliding down from the north stopped before these majestic mountains, pushing flora and fauna ahead of them. As the glaciers receded the landscape thrived and became a vast array of trees, plants, mushrooms, herbs and flowers. Perhaps some ancient civilizations such as Atlantis flourished here too.
