Old Cemetery

I've probably mapped about 2000 acres of the park now (only a thousand more to go), but today I found the first cemetery. It is way out on the east map, on the other side of the creek, high on a hill. Not very far from the southeast boundary, but difficult to get to. It looks very similar to the graves at McIntosh Reserve, another of the GAOC orienteering maps, which is just across the border from Chattahoochee Bend.

There are four graves, marked by rock slabs above ground:

The largest one is open on the end - you can see inside:
