This is the third cache of this Bankhead Forest Cache Run. There are 10 caches in this run, all are within 100 feet of the roadway. One of the Deep South's finest pockets of deep woods, Alabama's William B. Bankhead National Forest has a potential for adventure and natural beauty you'd expect of a bigger, wilder place. The forest's 180,000 acres encompass pine-clad and hardwood forest, burbling streams, deep gorges, and an arkful of wildlife. Bankhead is part of the Warrior Mountains, the western terminus of the Appalachian Mountains; before Europeans arrived, the forests here had been hunted for some 12,000 years by the Choctaw and Cherokee peoples. Take a drive and view one of Alabama's best kept secrets. The run ends up at Brushy Lake, a 33 acre lake. Power boats are limited to electric motors. I have been told that the creek leaving the dam of Brushy Lake is a great place for white water sports in the late winter or early spring. There are 13 camping spots at Brushy Lake. Enjoy your trip and I hope you find all 10 of these hides. By the way you may want to bring a friend along with you just "in case".
