1971 Map of Dyke

About this map

Talking Rock Creek and its many tributaries, including Fisher Creek and Rock Creek, carve through this section of the North Georgia mountains during the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by the Indefinite Boundary between Gilmer and Pickens counties, a region where small rural communities like Dyke and Pleasant Valley are connected by winding unimproved roads. The southwestern corner is marked by the presence of the Louisville and Nashville railroad line, which follows the path of Talona Creek.
