2020 Map of Jacks Gap

About this map

Brasstown Bald stands as the primary landmark of this North Georgia mountain landscape, marking the intersection of the Towns and Union county lines. The high-elevation terrain is defined by the Chattahoochee National Forest and the winding path of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, which traverses numerous high points including Spaniards Knob and Jacks Knob. Small settlements and clusters of development like Fain and Hood are concentrated along the lower elevations and creek valleys, where forest service roads and local routes like Duck Gap Rd provide access to the interior ridges.
