NorthGA: US 129 Around Cleveland GA
Heads up:
The bypass around Cleveland GA is fantastic. 4 lanes in a divided hwy with very little traffic, beautiful mountain views and easier to get to Unicoi or Vogel SPs.
If going to Unicoi, US 129 north and take the 75 Alternate north of Cleveland then right (south) on 75 in Robertstown and the first left to Unicoi. It'll help avoid the long traffic lines in Helen. Vogel is reached by just staying on US 129.
I-85 to I-985 north out of Atlanta was a breeze. Avoid doing 400 north out of Atlanta and trying to go through Dahlonega. Roads around Dahlonega are crowded now and only two lanes in most places. They've grown and with it comes heavy traffic. Add in their festivals once a month and you never when you'll hit traffic lines.
