Sand Mountain dominates this portion of Northeast Alabama, creating a high plateau that drops sharply into the Big Wills Valley. The landscape is a patchwork of rural agriculture and small community hubs, centered around the Sand Mountain Agricultural Experiment Station. This era shows Crossville and Geraldine as established towns, while smaller settlements like Skirum, Ophir, and Gilbert Crossroads dot the plateau. Local history is deeply rooted in the numerous country churches and burial grounds, such as Pilgrim Rest Ch and Red Hill Cem (Weston Cem).
