1946 Map of Rabun Bald

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Rabun Bald towers over the landscape at the intersection of Georgia and North Carolina, where the Nantahala National Forest meets the Chattahoochee National Forest. This 1946 field-checked survey highlights the mountain-and-valley economy of the era, defined by the Tallulah Falls RR corridor passing through Dillard and Mountain City. The topographic detail reveals a network of high-elevation gaps and coves, including Beegum Gap and Milksick Cove, which shaped the early road and trail systems.
