Videos from Helen, GA


Helen, GA is a former asbestos mining town that found itself in hard times when the asbestos market collapsed.   The town lifted itself up with the spirit of tourism as it morphed into a misplaced German town in the Appalachian Mountains.

I also took a look at an abandoned bear pit.....



And finally we take a look at the legendary Nacoochee Indian Mound....
