About this map

The Chattooga River forms a winding natural border between Rabun County, Georgia and Oconee County, South Carolina in this late 20th-century survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp elevations of Rainy Mountain, Screamer Mountain, and Boggs Mountain, separated by a dense network of drainages like Stekoa Creek and Chechero Creek. While much of the land is preserved within the Chattahoochee and Sumter National Forests, the presence of numerous rural congregations such as New Hope Ch, Wolf Creek Ch, and Laurel Spring Ch indicates the enduring footprint of small communities across these ridges. Notable water features include Lake Toccoa in the northwest and Tugaloo Lake to the south, while the Chattooga Wild and Scenic River corridor highlights the region's focus on conservation and recreation, marked by landmarks like Woodall Shoals.
