Rottenwood Creek Ravine
3commentsNude sunbathing is common along Rottenwood Creek, upstream from where the creek flows into the Chattahoochee. There are not a great number of nudists, but most will be gay men. The ravine is right next to I-75 and not far from its junction with I-285, however, a sound barrier keeps the highways sounds to a minimum.

this used to be the best place around, but since they built that huge new trail that runs paralell with the creek it's pretty much ruined. Too much of the creek visible rom the trail ( & trail is not only patrolled by park rangers, but Cobb Cycle pigs also)- especially the best spots down by the old mill ruins. Also hard to get to now. Let me know if anyone still goes there.

I tried this on a sunny May day and found it dead. I presume we are talking about the place where the black sewer line runs across the creek? Or am I in the wrong place. This seems to be a dead spot...but noticed some cruising near the far west end of the park, and some glory holes in the bathroom there. But no one wanted to play, and the rangers seem ready to pounce on anyone who wants to...
