2024 Map of Goodsprings

About this map

The Mulberry Fork winds through this section of Walker County, defining the local geography with its sharp meanders and numerous named shoals. This landscape is shaped by the transition from upland ridges like Big Ridge and Pea Ridge down to the river bottoms, where historically significant crossings such as Copeland Ferry and Underwood Ferry once linked isolated communities. The map highlights a series of small, dispersed settlements including Goodsprings, Gorgas, and Barney, many of which developed around the region's industrial and agricultural needs.
