It’s come to this.

Stone Mountain Park’s Snow Mountain attraction, which gives Georgians a rare opportunity to play in the snow every year, is closing Friday because it’s actually snowing.

All attractions at the park, also including the Christmas display, are shutting down at 2 p.m., a spokeswoman said. There's no word on when they will reopen as snow continues in the forecast and Atlanta area roads quickly deteriorate.

The Snow Mountain closure, as odd as it seems, has happened once already this year, in January when snow threatened the area.

Cuthbert is the county seat of Randolph County, one of 94 Georgia counties that registered more deaths than births in 2024. The county's hospital closed in 2020, leaving longtime state Rep. Gerald Greene to drivce himself 46 miles to Albany while suffering from a kidney stone recently. (Hyosub Shin/AJC)
