Answer: In the North Carolina Mountains

Step-by-step explanation:

Soil creep refers to the process whereby soil and sediments on a hillside begin to flow down the hill gradually. It is quite prevalent in humid areas with lots of rain.

The North Carolina mountains provide conditions necessary for soil creep to occur as they are both humid areas with high amounts of rainfall and comprise of various hills that soil and sediments can flow downwards on.
