Picnic on Black Mountain Drives Through Mountain Roads
A narrator and Mr. Tom Ray spent a Sunday trip from Dahlonega visiting seven districts along the Blue Ridge. They report fine road conditions with one delay due to a sick overseer, note abundant crops and cane, and describe a hot ascent that required finding water at a spring to complete the journey back through Porter Springs and nearby districts.
