1997 Map of Coal Mountain

About this map

Lake Sidney Lanier dominates the northeastern and southern edges of this area, showing the fingers of the reservoir reaching into the Georgia landscape near the border of Dawson and Forsyth counties. The topography reveals a transition from the Etowah River valley in the northwest to the higher elevations of Taylor Ridge. A network of country roads, such as Pilgrim Mill Road and Burruss Mill Road, suggests the area's history of local industry and milling along the numerous creeks like Settingdown Creek and Twomile Creek.
