Providence Canyon


Towering walls can be found throughout Providence canyon. The canyons were formed by poor farming practices during the 1800s, when farmers took no steps to avoid soil erosion. Ditches several feet and as a result, runoff and the rate of erosion increased, massive gullies the deepest of which is more than 150 feet. Providence canyon is a unique Georgia treasure a man- made disaster turned natural wonder.
