2020 Map of Hog Mountain

About this map

The ridge of Hog Mountain serves as a prominent geographic divide in this northern Georgia landscape, where the headwaters of several major river systems originate. The Apalachee River and Little Mulberry River flow toward the southeast, while the Yellow River and Alcovy River drain the southern reaches of the quadrangle. This 2020 survey reveals the modern suburban expansion surrounding the established hubs of Buford and Dacula, illustrating how residential road networks have integrated with older landmarks like Crowe Lake and Hogan Lake. For those tracing local heritage, several small burial grounds are documented, including Waters Cem near the northern border and McElroy Cem to the south. The transition from industrial corridors near Buford to the dense creek networks of Duncan Creek and Suwanee Cr provides a clear view of the area's contemporary development pattern.
