About this map

Salacoa Valley and the surrounding southern Appalachian foothills define this landscape at the border of Pickens and Cherokee Counties. The rural character of northern Georgia is evident in the cluster of small, historically established settlements like Ludville, Jerusalem, and Hinton. These communities are connected by a network of winding mountain roads and gaps between prominent peaks such as Henderson Mtn, Rich Mtn, and Oakey Mtn.

Local landmarks and genealogy resources are scattered throughout the terrain, including Mineral Spring and Turkeytoter Spring, which emphasize the area's natural hydrography. Small burial sites like Hutcherson Cem and the County Line Cem provide vital links for family researchers. The map also details several mountain lakes, including Kraft Lake and Medlin Lake, which drain into the branching creek systems of Salacoa Cr and Scarecorn Cr.
