2024 Map of Dyke

About this map

Talking Rock Creek and its many tributaries, including Fisher Creek and Price Creek, carve through the complex terrain of the Gilmer and Pickens county line in this contemporary record. The small settlement of Dyke serves as a central point in a landscape defined by sharp ridges like Andes Ridge and the prominent height of Sharptop Mountain. Local genealogy and community history are anchored by several established sites, including the Pleasant Valley Baptist Church and its associated cemetery, along with Clear Creek Cem and Yukon Cem. The area's geography is further shaped by private water bodies such as Teague Lake, Diamond Lure Lake, and Montag Lake, which highlight the modern residential and recreational character of these North Georgia uplands. The road network, ranging from the established Yukon Rd to winding mountain lanes like Blackberry Mountain Rd, reveals how modern development has adapted to the steep drainages of the Talking Rock area.
