Along the Ghost Town Trail you will find several large rock cuts made during the construction of the railroad here in the early 1900s. During the winter the cuts, like this one at Twin Rocks, have interesting ice formations. If you enjoy geology the cuts are good places to view rock layers and formations.
We call it the BRT for short. Although it is one of our shortest trails, at a little less than 2 miles, it is one of our most remarkable. Through the combined efforts of many partners this trail became a reality. When first proposed the idea of building a trail on an Army Corps of Engineers flood plain seemed like a remote possibility. But the volunteers and community groups in Blairsville persevered and today their much beloved trail is a reality and a source of community pride.
The stone arch bridge at Tunnelview Historic Site is a massive stone sturcture. As water percolates through the stonework it freezes underneath the arches and forms large iciciles or archcicles as we like to call them.
