Chenocetah Fire Tower

Chenocetah Mountain, known to locals as "Tower Mountain,"[1] is located near the towns of Mount Airy and Cornelia, Georgia. The mountain has an elevation of Шаблон:Convert.[2][3] Atop the mountain, the WPA built an observation tower in 1937 for the Forest Service; it is used as a fire tower for observation by rangers. Chenocetah is a Cherokee language word meaning "see all around." Variant names were "Griffin Mountain" and "Tower Mountain".[4]

Occasionally visitors are allowed in. During Cornelia's annual Big Red Apple Festival, visitors are allowed into the tower to enjoy its panoramic view of the surrounding hills and valleys.[5]
