About this map

The Cahaba River and Little Cahaba River wind through this part of Bibb County, shaping a landscape defined by industrial extraction and small riverside communities. Around West Blocton, the map reveals a heavy concentration of Strip Mine activity and Gravel Pits, including a significant Tailings Pond near Smith Hill. These mining operations are interspersed with numerous family-named water features like Coffee Creek and Ugly Creek, illustrating the complex relationship between the natural watershed and the coal and gravel industries of the late 20th century.
