Yellow River Traditional Cache
zanna: After thinking long and hard on what to do with this series, I have come to the decision to archive it. Its had a good run, but just about every season the containers and logs need refreshing and it's not convenient to anything in my life.
Hopefully someone will do something great with all this new real estate!

Take a hike along the newly opened section of the South River Trail and learn a bit about Georgia's rivers!
This series will provide some great one on one time with nature as you learn about the many rivers throughout the state. Rivers have always played a vital role in the history and development of Georgia, and continue today to be major sources of drinking water, navigation, and recreation.
The Georgia River series is not a P&G series. Almost all of the caches are along a paved PATH trail that can be accessed by walking, running, or biking. There are a few different points that you can jump on the trail, but we recommend parking at the Gresham Park Recreation Center at the corner of Gresham Rd and Clifton Church Rd.
The South River Trail is still expanding with plans to connect to the Atlanta BeltLine to the west and Panola Mountain State Park to the east.
The Yellow River is a 76-mile-long (122 km) tributary of the Ocmulgee River.
The river rises north of Lawrenceville in Gwinnett County and flows south through the outer eastern suburbs of Atlanta, passing through the easternmost corner of DeKalb County before entering Rockdale County. Continuing south into Newton County, the river joins the South River in Lake Jackson, 2 miles (3 km) upstream of the junction of the Alcovy River to form the Ocmulgee River.
Yellow River Park is a highly vegetated area located off Juhan Road in the city of Stone Mountain, Georgia - just southeast of the granite dome of Stone Mountain. The 566-acre (229 ha) park includes a 12-mile (19 km) trail that can be used for walking, hiking, and horse riding. The park has pavilions, grills, and a large playground, as well as a wooden overlook that provides a view of the Yellow River. Some people walk down to the river using an unmarked trail to wade in the river, or tube down the river to Norris Lake, although this is not encouraged by Gwinnett County or Yellow River Regional Park.
