 uaint cotton mill village of Bibb City\, downtown Columbus\, and the drill
  fields at Fort Benning.\n\nThe Chattahoochee River originates in the moun
 tains of north Georgia and flows to the Florida Panhandle. Steamboats load
 ed with cotton plied the river through Columbus in the 1800s and commerce 
 depended on the river with the arrival of the railroad and other means of 
 transportation.\n\nNavigate the shores of the river on the Chattahoochee R
