2017 Map of Neel Gap

About this map

Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds across the high ridges of the Chattahoochee National Forest, marking a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and numerous gaps. The 2017 terrain is punctuated by significant peaks like Big Cedar Mtn and Columbia Mtn, with many smaller features bearing family or descriptive names such as Glass Mine Top and Steel Trap Knob. These names often hint at the early resource extraction and land use history of the North Georgia mountains.
