Traveling across the treacherous and diverse landscape of western North Carolina is a challenge historically met with human ingenuity.

Intrepid young men and women continued North Carolina s aviation legacy. The Buncombe Turnpike helped tame the Blue Ridge Mountains, allowing livestock drives to reach markets in South Carolina.
