One of the five "Rocky Mountain" SOTA summits in Georgia. Parking for a couple of cars off on the side of Cooper Creek Rd where it turns right. Some maps show Rocky Mountain Rd at this intersection but if it was open to cars it was a long time ago and not driveable by car, ATV, bike, or even walking in some sections. Moderate hike of about 1 mile, mostly off trail but does follow parts of old road and trail on and off. About 800 feet elevation gain.
