Valley Cr snakes through the heart of this landscape, carving sharp turns at Sextons Bend and the narrow passage known as The Narrows. This region on the border of Jefferson and Tuscaloosa Counties shows a landscape transitioning between rural settlements and industrial extraction in the early 1980s. The small communities of Toadvine, Oak Grove, and Betty Hill are surrounded by an extensive network of resource extraction, with numerous areas marked as Strip Mine and the substantial Oak Grove Mine operations including a large Tailings Pond.
