About this map

The Chattahoochee River carves a deep boundary between Cobb and Fulton Counties, anchoring a landscape where modern suburban expansion meets preserved riverfront recreation. In the northern reaches, Mount Bethel and Chattahoochee Plantation sit near significant water bodies like Thompson Lake and Lake Jackson. The map details an extensive network of green space, including the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area and the Cochran Shoals Trail System, which trace the river's path past Chochran Shoals and Devils Race Course Shoals.

Family history is deeply etched into the terrain through numerous small burial sites, such as the Wooten Hodge Cem and Deik Hunton Cem, which persist alongside major infrastructure like Interstate 75 and Dobbins ARB. In the southwest, the industrial and commercial corridors of Marietta and Smyrna contrast with the elevated peak of Blackjack Mtn, while Sandy Springs and northern Atlanta define the southeastern quadrant.
