Fort Yargo State Park
The State of Georgia contracted with the Humphries brothers - George, Shadrack, and Uriah, the three sons of Revolutionary War captain and Jackson County delegate to 1798 Georgia Constitutional Convention, Joseph Humphries - to build four forts across Georgia. Fort Yargo was constructed in 1793. The park is centred around a stunning 260-acre lake, perfect for capturing reflections and water-based activities. Surrounding the lake, dense forests and open fields provide ample opportunities for wildlife and landscape photography. The park's well-maintained trails, including a 7-mile mountain bike path, allow easy access to various picturesque spots. Seasonal changes bring a kaleidoscope of colors, making it an excellent location for year-round photography.(Fort Yargo State Park, Georgia, USA)
