Description
USDA Forest Service | Folded Recreation Map
For exploring North Georgia, this is one of those maps that belongs in the vehicle.
The official USDA Forest Service Chattahoochee National Forest map provides a large-format overview of one of Georgia’s most important public-land areas. At a scale of 1:126,720 — approximately 1 inch = 2 miles — it gives you the broader geographic picture needed for planning routes, identifying Forest Service lands, and understanding how roads and recreation areas connect across the mountains.
For overlanders, hikers, campers, anglers, hunters, paddlers, and anyone spending time in the North Georgia backcountry, an official Forest Service map makes an excellent companion to GPS and digital mapping tools.
Made for Exploring North Georgia
The Chattahoochee National Forest encompasses hundreds of thousands of acres across the mountains of North Georgia and provides access to an enormous range of outdoor recreation.
This map is particularly useful for:
- Planning trips through National Forest lands
- Identifying Forest Service roads and access routes
- Understanding public-land boundaries
- Locating recreation areas and points of interest
- Planning hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, and backcountry trips
- Getting the big-picture view of an area before heading into the field
- Keeping a paper navigation reference available when cell service isn’t
Expedition Georgia Field Note
If you spend much time exploring North Georgia, carry a paper Forest Service map.
Apps such as Gaia GPS, onX, and Google Maps are excellent tools, but North Georgia has plenty of places where cellular service ranges from unreliable to nonexistent. More importantly, a large paper map lets you see the relationship between roads, mountains, public lands, and destinations without endlessly zooming and scrolling.
Use it alongside your digital navigation rather than instead of it. Spread it across the hood, mark potential routes, make notes, and keep it in the rig as part of your navigation kit.
Around Expedition Georgia, we’re big believers in knowing where you are—and having more than one way to figure it out.
