About this map

Chief Chenneby Grave stands as a significant cultural marker in this section of the Talladega National Forest, situated north of the settlement at McElderry. The landscape is defined by the transition from the Horse Creek Valley into the elevated ridges of Talladega Mountain, where the Pinhoti National Recreation Trail and Skyway Loop Hiking Trail navigate the steep terrain.

Settlement patterns follow the valley floor, with Ironaton and Chinnabee connected by a network of rural routes including Ironaton Rd and Chinnabee Rd. Small family or community burial grounds, such as Lackey Cem and Horse Creek Cem, are scattered across the quadrangle, reflecting the area's deep-rooted local history. Water resources are abundant, ranging from the winding Cheaha Creek to man-made features like C C W Dam Number 6 Lake and Lake Chinnabee.
