2011 Map of Suches

About this map

Mount Airy Cemetery and several other family and community burial grounds, such as Cavender Cemetery and Mount Lebanon Cemetery, sit atop the ridges and valley floors of this portion of northern Georgia. The landscape is defined by its numerous gaps and mountains, including Hogback Mountain and Black Mountain, where a Black Mountain Look Out Tower overlooks the terrain. Small settlements like Suches and Gaddistown are connected by a network of rural routes, including Gaddistown Rd and Camp Wahsega Rd. The drainage pattern is complex, with headwaters of the Etowah River and Toccoa River carving through the highlands alongside smaller streams like Canada Creek and Suches Creek. Unique local identifiers such as Devils Kitchen and the Gooch Gap Trail Shelter provide specific points of interest for those studying the social and physical geography of this mountain region.
