    A decent number of the Appalachians have roads that go near the top.

      That just means they have better engineers and braver drivers, or the mountains are older and they had more time

        braver drivers,

        I used to joke that there were no bad drivers in WV, you either learned how to drive or you fell twenty feet off the road and got impaled by a tree. Unfortunately, since I was a kid we’ve put guard rails on a lot of those places.
