The name "Smoky" comes from the
natural fog that often hangs over the range and presents as large smoke plumes
from a distance. This fog is caused by the vegetation exhaling
volatile organic compounds,
chemicals that have a high vapor pressure and easily form vapors at normal
temperature and pressure.
