If you recreate outside in Appalachia, you’re interacting with unique and varied ecosystems full of beauty, medicine and sustenance. If unacquainted, you might not realize that the flower you just walked by only grows on shaded ridge lines in the Southeast, or that the spruce-fir forest you're walking through only exists on mountaintops above 4,500ft. You may not know about that critically endangered lichen, or that the plant you stepped over can help stop a bleeding wound. If your sole focus in these mountains is sending the line or sticking that move, it’s understandable, but you’re missing a huge part of what makes that spot, and this entire region so special. The forest is home to delicious berries, poison plants and a host of fascinating flora. Before you head into the woods it's best to know what’ll heal ya, kill ya and fill ya.
