Officials with the U.S. Forest Service said Boggs Creek Recreation Area, located off U.S. Highway 129 north of Turners Corner, was hit particularly hard in April of last year as a powerful band of tornadoes swept through the Chattahoochee National Forest.
During the subsequent timber salvage, clean-up and restoration activities, Boggs Creek Road and the surrounding recreation area had been closed for public safety.
Even though the area has reopened for day-use activities, officials said camping is still prohibited in the area.
