Natural Adventures in the Mountains of North Georgia by Mary Ellen Hammond & Jim Parham
What do panning for gold, splashing in a spring-fed swimming pool, touring civil war battlefields, rafting a wild and scenic river, exploring mysterious prehistoric Indian mounds, picking heirloom apples and visiting the seat of 19th century Cherokee culture have in common? You and your family can find all these activities and dozens more in the mountains of north Georgia. Just a few hours from Atlanta, this region is rich in natural and human history. You'll never forget the fun, fascinating and surprising experiences you'll find there. Hike to Brasstown Bald, tube a cool mountain stream in alpine Helen, search for stalactites in the Cave Spring Cave or simply tour the backroads to find the perfect picnic spot. For each activity or destination, the authors provide historical background, how-to information, or interesting facts. This guide makes a great trip planner as well as a wonderful vacation
companion. The large appendix lists phone numbers, addresses and web sites
for information on activities, attractions, festivals and classic destinations.
Find out when to go, what to expect and how to get there in this illustrated
guide for adventurers of all ages. Price $12.95 Questions & Comments
