Topo maps



Allatoona Dam topo.

MaryAnne bought me a wonderful gift: a topographic map of the Allatoona Dam.  I immediately taped it to the closet door in the family room so that I could study it more closely.  The map shows logging roads and some trails.  It also identifies the WMA, to some extent (although you cannot find the area that is open to hunting, which, I believe is a subset of the WMA, or the bird-dog training area).  You can tell by the gradients where the hills, valleys, and creeks are, and you can map out some hikes with big view payoffs.  I intend to put this map to work this summer.
