NC 69 is a short north/south state highway in western North Carolina; it is entirely in Clay County.
[edit] Route description
NC 69 runs from the Georgia border south of Hayesville north, along the western shore of Lake Chatuge. The route crosses U.S. Route 64 before entering downtown Hayesville, where it meets its northern terminus at U.S. Route 64 Business in downtown.
[edit] History
NC 69 previously ran from Marshall northeast to Twin Oaks, parallel to the Tennessee border. It was completely decomissioned by 1933. In addition, the current route of NC 69 was previously NC 287, but was renumbered in 1941 to match Georgia State Route 69, which itself was renumbered in 1958. NC 69 previously ran southeast from Hayesville, but had to be relocated after the damming of Lake Chatuge.
