2018 Map of Mitchell Dam NW

About this map

Lay Lake and Mitchell Lake dominate the western edge of this Coosa County landscape, where the impounded Coosa River creates a complex shoreline of inlets and points. The terrain transitions from these broad waters into the elevations of the Weogufka Mountains to the southeast. Small, dispersed settlements like Gold Branch, Quinsey, and Dollar are connected by a network of county roads including Co Rd 55 and Co Rd 15. For those tracing local family history, the map identifies several burial grounds such as Duke Cem, Ham Lewis Cem, and Quinsey Cem. Numerous named tributaries, including Weogufka Creek, Clay Cr, and McSmith Br, carve through the ridges, illustrating the intricate drainage system feeding the central river valley.
