Dusk at Breaks Interstate Park I'm taking a photo of one the oldest mountain ranges in the world from my Appalachian vantage point in Virginia, looking down the Russell Fork into Kentucky. It is off the beaten path. These settled mountains of Appalachia used to be a tall mountain range that formed the backbone of the supercontinent of Pangea. Through the eons, its ancient forests became highly diverse.
