Question: Which mountainous region lies between the mountains with a temperate climate in Tellico Reservoir's state and the mountain range that is higher than them?

<P0-S0> oklahoma has four primary mountain ranges: the ouachita mountains, the arbuckle mountains, the wichita mountains, and the ozark mountains. <P0-S1> 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. <P0-S2> 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> <P1-S0> Tellico Reservoir, also known as Tellico Lake, is a reservoir in Tennessee, created by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in 1979 upon the completion of Tellico Dam. <P1-S1> The dam impounds the Little Tennessee River and the lower Tellico River. <P1-S2> While TVA is careful to refer to its artificial lakes as reservoirs (such as "Tellico Reservoir"), common usage tends to refer to the reservoir as "Tellico Lake". <P1-S3> The lake is approximately 16,000 acres in surface area and provides 357 miles of shoreline. <SEP> <P2-S0> 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. <P2-S1> 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. <P2-S2> 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. <P2-S3> The driest months, on average, are August to October. <P2-S4> On average the state receives 50 inches (130 cm) of precipitation annually. <P2-S5> Snowfall ranges from 5 inches (13 cm) in West Tennessee to over 16 inches (41 cm) in the higher mountains in East Tennessee. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Great Plains lie west of the Mississippi River and east of the Rocky Mountains. <P3-S1> A large portion of the country's agricultural products are grown in the Great Plains. <P3-S2> 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. <P3-S3> Elevation rises gradually from less than a few hundred feet near the Mississippi River to more than a mile high in the High Plains. <P3-S4> 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. <P3-S5> Interior Highlands, the only major mountainous region between the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains. <SEP> <P4-S0> the wild horse range is a mountain range in elko county, nevada, united states, northwest of the owyhee river's wild horse reservoir. <P4-S1> it is contained within the mountain city ranger district of the humboldt-toiyabe national forest. <P4-S2> the range is considered to be a sub-range of the jarbidge mountains. <SEP> <P5-S0> The Appalachian Mountains (French: les Appalaches), often called the Appalachians, are a system of mountains in eastern North America. <P5-S1> The Appalachians first formed roughly 480 million years ago during the Ordovician Period. <P5-S2> They once reached elevations similar to those of the Alps and the Rocky Mountains before experiencing natural erosion. <P5-S3> 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.
