Cheoah Mountains

The Cheoah Mountains are a small but rugged mountain range located in the western part of North Carolina. This range is part of the Unicoi Mountains, which are a subrange of the Appalachian Mountains. The Cheoah Mountains are characterized by steep, heavily forested slopes and numerous streams and rivers that flow through deep, narrow valleys. The range is home to several notable peaks, including Cheoah Bald and Sassafras Mountain, which offer panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness.
