Pine Log Wildlife Management Area is a climbing area in north Georgia, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It lies within Pine Log WMA, about 8 miles from Allatoona Dam, and its climbing routes are set among the natural terrain of the state's wildlife management lands. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit.
