Lymph is the excess blood plasma after it is filtered from interstitial fluid, when the interstitial fluid is formed.  From the circulation system, after filtration, lymph is comes into to the Lymphatic system.
The Lymphatic system with its tubular vessels, is an open system. It conducts lymph between various parts of the body.  It provides a route for the excess interstitial fluid to be returned back to blood.

On the other hand, Our cardiovascular system - responsible for circulation of blood - is a closed system. Blood never leaves the veins, arteries, and capillaries.

The geology of the Adirondock mountains formed around 5 million years ago with rocks  over 1000 million years old. At this very ancient age, the sedimentary and igneous rocks in the Adirondock mountains have undergone extensive heat and pressure hence regional metamorphism of the existing sedimentary and igneous rocks.
