About this map

Mitchell Lake and Lay Lake dominate the western edge of this Coosa County landscape, where the water meets a network of creeks and ridges. Small settlements like Dollar and Quinsey represent the quiet rural character of the region, connected by winding routes such as Co RD 55 and Little Tom RD. The terrain is defined by the Weogufka Mountains in the southeast, a significant topographic feature that influences the drainage of Weogufka Creek and None-less Cr. Local history is preserved through several family and community burial sites, including Quinsey Cem and the Ham Lewis Cem, while the Coosa Trail winds through the hills. This survey illustrates the balance between the hydroelectric reservoirs of the Coosa River system and the established upland communities during the early 21st century.
