Boone, North Carolina, is named after the famous frontiersman Daniel Boone, who is believed to have explored the area in the late 18th century. The town was officially established in 1872 and was initially called "Daniel Boone" in honor of the explorer. The name was later shortened to simply "Boone." The town serves as a gateway to outdoor activities in the surrounding Appalachian Mountains and is also home to Appalachian State University.
