Sawnee Mountain
Sawnee Mountain is a low mountain between the piedmont and Appalachian foothills of the U.S. state of Georgia, north of Atlanta. The name Sawnee Mountain actually refers to the entire ridge of approximately five miles (8 km) in length. At its summit, the elevation is above mean sea level, and is roughly above the surrounding terrain.〔http://www.mountainzone.com/mountains/detail.asp?fid=6427556〕 The Sawnee Mountain range runs southwest to northeast, and consists of five knolls and three gaps (Chamblee, Sawnee, and Bettes).〔http://www.mytopo.com/maps/index.cfm?search_string=sawnee+mountain〕 Located only a few miles north of Cumming, Georgia (the county seat), the mountain is easily the highest point in Forsyth county. One of the highest peaks of metro Atlanta, it nudges out its prominently known neighbors Stone Mountain and Kennesaw Mountain by a hundred or so feet each. However, Sawnee is in the far northern exurbs, putting it in third place behind Bear Mountain and Pine Log Mountain to the west.
==Sawnee Mountain Preserve==
The Sawnee Mountain Preserve protects 963 acres of the mountain and is managed by the Outdoor Division of Forsyth County Parks and Recreation.
The Visitor Center features interactive exhibits about the natural and cultural histories of Sawnee Mountain, and a resource library and lounge. Environmental education programs are offered for school, scout and other groups, and a summer camp program is operated by the County.
