About this map

The Tennessee Georgia state line cuts across the northern reaches of this territory, where the settlement of Tennga sits at the junction of the L & N RR and regional roadways. The landscape is defined by the transitions between the valley floor and the protected highlands of the Cherokee National Forest and Chattahoochee National Forest. This survey captures a network of small mountain communities and rural landmarks, including Cisco and Crandall, anchored by local congregations such as Liberty Ch and Summerour Ch.

Heavy conservation and recreation footprints are evident through the Cohutta Wildlife Management Area and the Cohutta Wilderness. These protected spaces surround the winding courses of the Conasauga River and Alaculsy River. Significant local features like Rostex Airport and Cohutta Springs reflect the mix of mid-century industrial activity and mountain tourism present in Murray County before the turn of the twenty-first century.
