a Geocaching Haunted Observations and Supernatural Tales (G.H.O.S.T.) Challenge geocache
The Ghost of the Coosa
a known paranormal hotspot in Rome, Georgia
The Coosa River begins at the confluence of the Oostanaula and Etowah rivers in Rome, Georgia, and ends just northeast of the Alabama state capital, Montgomery, where it joins the Tallapoosa River to form the Alabama River which empties into the Gulf of Mexico at Mobile, Alabama. The Coosa was an important transportation route into the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a commercial waterway for riverboats along the upper section of the river for 200 miles south of Rome.
