This area was called “Enota” by the Cherokees which means “the land that nourishes.” The Indians were forced to leave this area after Congress passed the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Local operations began on May 18, 1838, mostly carried out by Georgia Guard. The first round-up, under orders from United States General Winfield Scott, started on May 25, 1838.
Most Indian trails have long gone, some lost in time and others paved over with asphalt and concrete. Today we can enjoy the beauty of this area on a series of well maintained walking trails and gravel roads. This cache will take you, on what I think, is the most scenic route in North Georgia. Happy hunting!
