The Lake's Region part of that "long track" can be viewed at the site below.
The bottom photo, the start, is just west of the Camp Pierce/Birchmont area on Lake Wentworth. The top photo is described as where the tornado-track ended, but doesn't list the mountain's name. The site does mention Cotton Mountain, and photographing as far as Effingham.

The track is described as 3-tenths of a mile wide.
My sightings of those "points" of scud clouds while boating on the ocean have often dipped down into the water to create a water spout, sometimes three or four at the same time.
