Wheeler Dam serves as the dominant landmark on this Alabama landscape, spanning the Tennessee River to form Wheeler Lake and Wilson Lake. The surrounding area in Lauderdale and Colbert counties shows a transition from structured settlements like Killen and Elgin to the low-lying terrain of Bugger Bottom and Tupelo Bottoms. The river's influence is evident in the development of Fishermans Resort and the presence of Lock Three, while the higher ground is marked by numerous family burial sites, including the Gabriel Butler Cem and Harden Cem.
