The Appalachian Mountains
The Appalachian mountains are among one of the greatest mountain ranges in the world. Yet they have only gently sloping hills, and people hesitate to call them mountains. They may seem big to some people, but it is not nearly as big as Himalayas, Andes, and Alps. They might not be the biggest or the greatest of mountains, but they could be the most important mountain in Georgia for 3 main reasons. One of those reason that almost all of the Appalachians are covered with forests. They cover almost 1,5oo miles in a almost unbroken line. Because of the forests, hiking has become important. The Appalachian trail is the most used trial for hikers. The trail started over 900 million years ago when the continents collided. The continents split apart and 4 million years later, they moved back and pushed together. This caused the Appalachian trial to have parallel ridges.
