Though most of Georgia will see at least a partial eclipse on Monday, August 21, the far northeast corner of the state—including mountain towns like Blairsville, in Union County—is in the path of totality. Locals are prepping for tens of thousands of eclipse chasers with commemorative t-shirts, viewing events, and enthusiasm to share their community with tourists.
