The Talladega National Forest, located in Central Alabama, covers 392,567 acres at the southern edge of the Appalachian Mountains. Before it was bought by the federal government in the 1930s, the area was extensively logged and represented some of the most abused, eroded wastelands in all of Alabama. Pine forest regrowth now hosts a diverse eco-system. The tiny 7,400 acre Cheaha Wilderness preserves a portion of this natural wealth near Rebecca Mountain.
