2024 Map of Nottely Dam

About this map

The Nottely River winds across the North Carolina and Georgia state line, feeding into the expansive waters of Nottely Lake. This modern record of the North Georgia highlands highlights the dense network of forest roads and hiking trails, including the Hawksclaw Trl and Tomahawk Trl, that permeate the Chattahoochee National Forest and Nantahala National Forest. Smaller settlements like Ivylog and Bethlehem serve as focal points for local history, centered around longstanding community landmarks such as Bethlehem Cem and Thomas Chapel Cem. The landscape is defined by its high-altitude peaks and gaps, from Moccasin Mountain in the northeast to Hogback Mountain in the southwest. Cultural sites like the Liberty Baptist Church Cem and Notalee Orchards illustrate the persistent connection between the resident population and this mountainous terrain along the Union County boundary.
