About this map

The Chattooga River forms the border between Georgia and South Carolina, carving through a landscape dominated by the Sumter National Forest. This 1961 survey documents a remote corner of Oconee County defined by its narrow ridges and complex drainage systems, including the Chauga River and numerous mountain creeks. Central to the area's geography is the Stumphouse Tunnel and an associated Old Railroad Grade, providing evidence of mid-19th-century infrastructure ambitions that shaped local development.
