About this map

Brasstown Bald anchors the high ridgelines of the Blue Ridge Mountains in this modern survey of Union and Towns counties. The landscape is defined by the intersection of three major protected areas: the Chattahoochee National Forest, the Brasstown Wilderness, and the Mark Trail Wilderness. These steep slopes give rise to the headwaters of two significant southern drainage systems, with the Chattahoochee River flowing south and the Nottely River winding through the western valleys. Small settlements like Fain, Town Creek, and Hood occupy the lower elevations, where local roads such as Town Creek School Rd and Walnut Springs Rd provide access to rural homesteads. Genealogists can find several established burial grounds including Union Cem, New Liberty Cem, and Pinetop Cem, which remain tucked along the winding mountain passes and ridges.
