The Southern Appalachian Mountains are the highest, and considered by some the most rugged of the Appalachian chain. The fauna at these elevations is similar to more northern states.  The Great Smoky Mountains National Park alone has more species of fauna then all of Europe combined.  Many of our mountains and stream banks are covered in rhododendrons, azaleas, mountain laurel and dogwoods to name just a few.  The floral display starts in Mid-April and reaches its height in late June and July depending greatly on the elevation.  This display can be breathtaking and can only be matched by catching a feisty little Brook trout with colors equally as beautiful.

Wildlife is abundant in our area. White-tailed deer, bear, wild boar, bobcat, coyote, fox, otter, beaver, turkey and many more all make our woods their home.
