Subligna, located in northeastern Chattooga County, is located miles from any highway and is one of the most isolated places we've ever been to in Georgia... but for what it lacks in amenities, it more than makes up for it in utter beauty, peace, and quiet. Every chance we get, we pack up the car and spend a weekend in that wonderful little getaway place of ours. :)
As promised, I took a load of road pictures. Here is one of them for your viewing pleasure...
With most US highways in Georgia, you get to see the corresponding state route number with it. Sometimes on the assurance marker post, you may see the GA route given precedence over the US route number, such as the one above in Chattooga County. Incidentally, this reflects a newer Georgia design and a smaller US route shield which are becoming much more common on Georgia's highways.
US 27/GA 1 (GRIP corridor EDS-27), from GA 156 to Gore-Subligna Road, is part of a National Forest Scenic Byway (NFSBW) designated by the Georgia DOT as the Ridge and Valley Scenic Byway. Interestingly enough, there are no signs telling you this, but instead, you see generic NFSBW signs along its route and you wouldn't know this name unless you either had looked at an official Georgia map from a couple of years back or visited the Georgia DOT website.
Before writing this blog, I took some of the photos I had taken along this route and compiled them into a photo album. Please click here to see them.
I also took photos of the ends of GA 140 and GA 156 at US 27/GA 1 as follows...

That's all for now. Thanks for visiting and please come back again.
