1988 Map of Cowrock

About this map

Raven Cliffs Wilderness and the surrounding reaches of the Chattahoochee National Forest dominate this late-twentieth-century landscape. The map details the convergence of Lumpkin Co, Union Co, and White Co amidst a high-elevation network of gaps and ridges. Historic transportation routes like the Logan Turnpike and the Appalachian Trail cross the terrain, linking remote gaps such as Tesnatee Gap and Hogpen Gap. Rural life is centered on small community landmarks, including Antioch Ch and Antioch Cem, while the southern reaches show scattered development along Town Creek and the vicinity of Loudsville Ch. The drainage patterns are intricate, with the Chattahoochee River and Dukes Creek carving through the mountain gaps, punctuated by features like Dukes Creek Falls.
