Young Lick is a mountain that lies in three Georgia counties, Habersham, Rabun and Towns.
Its summit - Young Lick Knob, elevation 3,809 feet (1,161 m), is one of Habersham County's highest points.
More importantly, Young Lick is a "triple-divide" peak on the Eastern Continental Divide, with rainfall from its summit flowing into three completely separate major basins.
To the northeast of the peak, water flows into the headwaters of the Savannah River and into the Atlantic Ocean.
To the west, water also flows to the Gulf, but it follows a less direct route via the Hiawassee, Tennessee, Ohio, and Mississippi river systems.
