TRACES OF THE PAST. The Appalachian Mountains possess a mysterious beauty. The oldest mountains on earth, they are at once ancient and timeless. This land has attracted people for generations – from Cherokee Indians who hunted its forests to Scotch-Irish settlers who carved a hardscrabble existence and unique culture from the frontier. The town of Blue Ridge was incorporated in 1887. Timber and railroad companies arrived soon after, followed by “healing waters” tourism, which drew city dwellers attracted to the mountain climate and mineral springs.
