I knew it was West Virginia.

This is not climate change, y'all. The Appalachians are an eroding mountain range. The town where my sister lives is in a constant battle to keep the roads from falling into the adjacent creek beds. It's just an absurdly difficult geography to build on.

Yep! Over a billion years old and a major feature on Pangaea.
