1950 Map of Campbell Mtn

About this map

The Etowah River carves a winding path through this corner of the Chattahoochee National Forest, defining a landscape of isolated ridges and tight-knit mountain communities. Just west of Dahlonega, the map records a rural economy rooted in land and legacy, featuring the North Georgia College Farm and the historic Buckhorn Tavern. While much of the terrain is defined by peaks like Campbell Mountain and Whissenhunt Mtn, the valleys are dotted with the essential infrastructure of mid-century life, from the Oak Grove Sch to numerous houses of worship including Cane Creek Ch and Pleasant Hill Ch.
