2020 Map of Dyke

About this map

Talking Rock and the settlement of Dyke anchor this 2020 landscape where the Gilmer Co and Pickens Co lines meet. The terrain is defined by the significant elevation of Sharptop Mtn and Andes Ridge, with drainage systems like Talking Rock Cr and Price Cr carving through the mountain gaps. Rural life is centered around long-standing community landmarks such as the Pleasant Valley Baptist Church Cem and Clear Creek Baptist Church Cem, providing critical points of interest for genealogists. Numerous private and recreational water bodies, including Diamond Lure Lake, Teague Lake, and Jones Lake, are connected by a network of winding mountain roads like Blackberry Mountain Rd and Burnt Mountain Rd. The map illustrates a contemporary mountain community where development is closely tied to the natural contours of the North Georgia ridges.
