1988 Map of Dillard

About this map

Dillard and Mountain City serve as the primary valley settlements in this late-twentieth-century study of the northeast Georgia highlands. The terrain is defined by the Blue Ridge Divide, which separates the waters of the Little Tennessee River from the headwaters of Stekoa Creek. This geographic split is mirrored by the extensive protected lands of the Nantahala National Forest and Chattahoochee National Forest, which dominate the high ridges. Significant historical landmarks include the Dickerson Mill and the Queen Mine, alongside the expansive grounds of the Rabun Gap Nacoochee Sch. Cultural indicators of older rural communities are scattered throughout the valleys, from the Germany Cem and Mountain Grove Ch Cem to the mountain recreation sites at Black Rock Mountain State Park and Camp Barron.
