Wheeler Lake defines the central geography of this region, where the Tennessee River winds past the Madison and Morgan County line. The settlement of Triana sits at a prominent bend, surrounded by a high density of family burial grounds and historical sites including the Triana Cem and Batts-Ward Cem. The landscape transitions from the river bottoms of Moon Bottom and Talley Bottom to the rising elevations of Hatton Mtn and Bradford Mtn in the north. To the south, the terrain becomes more complex near Valhermoso Springs, characterized by numerous natural features like Cove Spring and Bowers Spring. This area is a rich resource for genealogists, documenting numerous small cemeteries such as Horton-Joiner Cem and Penland-Cooper Cem alongside local landmarks like Sharps Ford Bridge and the uniquely named The Booger Hole.
