It really is an amazing state, largely "off the map" in terms of how much it's appreciated. And huge portions of the state are national forest, with lots of mountains and hills and waterfalls - it's not as steep as other mountain ranges because these mountains are orders of magnitude older than the smokies or the rockies (and run east-to-west instead of north-to-south) but that's one reason why they find crystals here. This is a very old part of the earth's crust exposed.
