==History==
Wayah Bald received its name from the Cherokee natives. It was named "Wa-ya",〔http://www.manataka.org/page122.html#ANIMALS〕 the Cherokee word for wolf, after the red wolves that once inhabited the area. Spear points found on the bald indicate that indigenous people used the area as hunting grounds more than eleven thousand years ago.〔http://www.blueridgeheritage.com/NaturalHeritage/NaturalTreasures/Mountains/wayahbald.html〕
