Pine Log Mountain Wildlife Management Area
HWY 20 West out of Canton towards Cartersville.
Cross over the Bartow County line. Slow down to turn right on Brooks Rd, NE.
Come to a stop sign and bear Left on Stamp Creek Road. This is a windy, curvy road. You'll pass a church on the right...that's about 3/4 of the way there. (My guess is the total mileage on Stamp Creek is about 4 miles) A few more turns and you'll come upon a gravel parking lot on your right with 3 turn ins.
