September 15th, 2012. After driving
over Patterson Gap Road in the Chattahoochee National Forest, we turned off
Persimmon Raod and drove up the Coleman River Road as far as we could go. We
still had some daylight although it was cloudy. We decided to drive up the
Tallulah River Road.
It’s rare that a road runs right
along a river. Usually, such roads only meet the river occasionally. But this
road stuck to the river bank for a long distance. The road was a two-laned, paved road with occasional pull-outs. There were many unobstructed views of
the river and some obscured by rhododendrons.
It’ll
be fun to revisit this road in sunny weather and when the rhodies are blooming.
At the top of the river road, we turned onto Tate City Road
and drove to the end of the road. The road got really interesting when it
crossed into North Carolina…
