About this map

The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area serves as the central corridor of this modern suburban landscape, marking the winding boundary between Cobb and Fulton counties. The river is characterized by numerous natural features including Cochran Shoals, Thornton Shoals, and the evocatively named Devils Race Course Shoals near Long Island. While the area is dominated by the growth of Sandy Springs and Marietta, dozens of smaller historical sites remain documented, such as the Marietta Campground Cem and New Providence Baptist Church.

To the west, the sprawling footprint of Dobbins Air Reserve Base stands adjacent to Smyrna, while the topography rises toward Blackjack Mtn. The map preserves the names of numerous family burial grounds and community landmarks, from Sardis Cem to the Bethlehem Primitive Baptist Church. This detailed survey captures the dense network of modern transit, including Powers Ferry Rd NW and Johnson Ferry Rd, as they navigate the ridges and creek valleys of the Georgia Piedmont.
