Question: What is the only major mountain range located between the Appalachian Mountains and the mountains higher than those which contain temperate parts of the state in which Calvin John Ward died?

the mcgregor range is a mountain range in the central interior of british columbia, located between the main spine of the rocky mountains and the fraser river on the northeast and southwest, and between the torpy river on its southeast and the mcgregor river on its northwest. though adjacent to the rockies and very mountainous, the mcgregor range is part of the mcgregor plateau, a subdivision of the fraser plateau. <SEP> The Appalachian Mountains (French: les Appalaches), often called the Appalachians, are a system of mountains in eastern North America. They once reached elevations similar to those of the Alps and the Rocky Mountains before experiencing natural erosion. The Appalachians first formed roughly 480 million years ago during the Ordovician Period. The Appalachian chain is a barrier to east - west travel, as it forms a series of alternating ridgelines and valleys oriented in opposition to most highways and railroads running east - west. <SEP> Ward entered active duty with the United States Army's 117th Regiment from the Tennessee National Guard during World War I. On October 8, 1918 during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive, Ward's company was stopped near Estrées, France by a German machine gun position. Ward and Sergeant James Ernest Karnes, deciding they had "had all they could take" of this situation, fixed bayonets, charged and captured the position. This freed their company to advance against German lines in the last major offensive of the war. Calvin John Ward was born on October 30, 1899 in Greene County, Tennessee and lived in Morristown, Tennessee. Both men received the Medal of Honor for extraordinary heroism in this action. <SEP> The Great Plains lie west of the Mississippi River and east of the Rocky Mountains. A large portion of the country's agricultural products are grown in the Great Plains. Before their general conversion to farmland, the Great Plains were noted for their extensive grasslands, from tallgrass prairie in the eastern plains to shortgrass steppe in the western High Plains. Elevation rises gradually from less than a few hundred feet near the Mississippi River to more than a mile high in the High Plains. The generally low relief of the plains is broken in several places, most notably in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains, which form the U.S. Interior Highlands, the only major mountainous region between the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains. <SEP> oklahoma has four primary mountain ranges: the ouachita mountains, the arbuckle mountains, the wichita mountains, and the ozark mountains. contained within the u.s. interior highlands region, the ozark and ouachita mountains mark the only major mountainous region between the rocky mountains and the appalachians. a portion of the flint hills stretches into north-central oklahoma, and near the state's eastern border, cavanal hill is regarded by the oklahoma tourism & recreation department as the world's tallest hill; at 1,999 feet (609 m), it fails their definition of a mountain by one foot. <SEP> The Gulf of Mexico is the dominant factor in the climate of Tennessee, with winds from the south being responsible for most of the state's annual precipitation. Most of the state has a humid subtropical climate, with the exception of some of the higher elevations in the Appalachians, which are classified as having a mountain temperate climate or a humid continental climate due to cooler temperatures. Generally, the state has hot summers and mild to cool winters with generous precipitation throughout the year, with highest average monthly precipitation generally in the winter and spring months, between December and April. The driest months, on average, are August to October. On average the state receives 50 inches (130 cm) of precipitation annually. Snowfall ranges from 5 inches (13 cm) in West Tennessee to over 16 inches (41 cm) in the higher mountains in East Tennessee.
