Juliette’s center stands about 410 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 360 ft to 580 ft, a difference of 220 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Providence Hill, about 580 ft, 11 miles south-southwest.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Biotite Gneiss/ Mica Schist (biotite-gneiss, mica-schist), from the Precambrian to Paleozoic.
The section below crosses 6 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 50×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Hornblende-gneiss, amphibolite. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 9 mi of the line.
Gneiss, mica-schist, amphibolite. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 7 mi of the line.
Gneiss, amphibolite. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 4 mi of the line.
Gneiss. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 2 mi of the line.
Biotite-gneiss, mica-schist. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 1 mi of the line.
Hornblende-gneiss. Age: Precambrian to Paleozoic. About 1 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
Heights from Copernicus GLO-90 (a surface model: it includes buildings and tree canopy); summits from USGS GNIS; rivers from USGS NHDPlus HR; rock from the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation.
A raindrop that lands in Juliette reaches the Atlantic Ocean by way of the Ocmulgee and the Altamaha: about 350 river miles.
220 miles of the trip are on the Ocmulgee.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Juliette; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
