Plott Balsam - Blue Ridge Parkway - Maggie Valley NC - Scenic Roadside Look-Outs on Waymarking.com

The Plott Balsams are a mountain range in western North Carolina, in the southeastern United States.

The Plott Balsams are named for the Plott family, whose ancestor, Johannes Plott (c. 1733-1810), immigrated to North Carolina in the late 18th-century from Germany. The Plott family lived in farms along the base of the range that now bears their name, and used the mountains for hunting. The Plott Hound, a breed of hunting dog, is also named for the Plotts.
