Maybe DNR but your not gonna run up on county or anything they don't patrol it. Really long poorly looked after dirt roads.
South Gate closed and locked this Saturday, because so many pine limbs were in the road.
We walked on and could see the clean up was underway.
Saw several widow makers so keep an eye out.

I've done some searching around the web and found this...
Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory
The Georgia Nuclear Aircraft Laboratory, also known as AFP No. 67, for Air Force Plant 67 was a United States Air Force test facility located in the Dawson Forest in Dawsonville, Georgia. It was the site of Lockheed's lab for investigating the feasibility of nuclear aircraft. The site was used for irradiating military equipment, as well as the forest to determine the effect of nuclear war, and its effects on wildlife. The area was closed in 1971 and acquired by the city of Atlanta for a second airport, but its topography was determined to be ill-suited for an airport. Documents explaining what went on at the site remain highly classified

Highly classified documents, lol, other words glowing in the dark.
Went all over there in the late 70's while in High School. Never went under ground. Great place for a 4WD Jeep back then. Got 35mm photos from back then showing Danger Radiation signs. Great place to camp and take drunk girls. Oh the days.

In the early to mid 70s we used to drive down into a square tunnel that spiraled down. Couldn't go past maybe a couple hundred feet cause it was flooded with water. Never saw anything notable (besides the aliens).
There was a local folklore story about a reactor monster (mutant bear) that ate local cattle and deer etc. Pretty good story when your are teen in the woods at night with drunk girls back in the seventies. Billy Beer. Man that stuff was nasty.
