About this map

Talladega National Forest encompasses the majority of this landscape, where the confluence of three Alabama counties—Perry, Dallas, and Chilton—creates a complex network of administrative and geographical boundaries. The terrain is defined by a dense system of waterways, most notably Oakmulgee Creek and its various tributaries like Oakmulgee Branch and Little Fivemile Branch. In the late 1980s, this area remained largely rural and undeveloped, with small concentrations of activity centered around Fullers in the northwest and Panhandle in the east. Economic activity is subtly noted by a Gravel Pit near the headwaters of Osborn Creek, suggesting a reliance on local natural resources. The map captures a moment when the forest boundaries and local creek-fed valleys dictated the movement and settlement patterns of this multi-county intersection.
