ALL OUT IN THE REGION

2 Providence Canyon
     OUTDOOR
RECREATION AREA

 Georgia’s “Little Grand Canyon” is a
 testament to the power of man’s influence
on the land. Massive gullies as deep
 as 150 feet were caused simply by poor
 farming practices during the 1800s, yet
 today they make for some of the prettiest
 photographs in the state. The rare plumleaf
 azalea grows only in this region and blooms
 during July and August when most azaleas
 have lost their color. The canyon soil’s
 pink, orange, red and purple hues make a
 beautiful natural painting at this quiet park.
