PHOTOS: North Georgia residents, visitors soak up the excitement surrounding Eclipse 2017

By AccessWDUN Staff

People flocked to the mountains of Northeast Georgia to witness what was for most a once-in-a-lifetime total solar eclipse.

The coast-to-coast eclipse moved from Oregon across the United States and extended into North Georgia and South Carolina by mid-afternoon. 

From Long Creek, SC to Batesville in Habersham County to downtown Gainesville and other communities in between, AccessWDUN reporters captured some of the sites across the region.

The ride home proved a nightmare for many. One listener reported it took three hours to travel from Toccoa to Gainesville due to traffic.

Enjoy our photo gallery and be sure to listen to WDUN AM550 & FM 102.9 to hear what people had to say about the eclipse.
