Outdoorsy Types
The retailer Mountain Crossings is
the only place where the Appalachian Trail
passes through a created structure, the
Walasi-Yi Interpretive Center. Built in 1937
by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the
center was completed with the trail and is
where the store is based: selling high quality
hiking gear to get you through an hour on
the trail or for eight months, with foods,
refreshments, and Appalachian Trail gifts.
You’ll find just about everything under
the sun at Alexander’s Store, North
Georgia’s General Store since 1953, which
remains family owned. They offer vibrant
furniture and trendy, classic clothing, as well
as all your hunting and fishing needs.
