Terrapin Creek

A beautiful stream in Clebourne County that geologically does not look like it should even be there. It backs up to Dugger Mountain Wilderness, lies within the Talladega National Forest, is cross by the Chief Ladaiga Trail as well as the Pinnhoti Trail that connects to the Appalachian Trail. Once a retreat where people would come for the mineral springs the county has been economically challenged for several years. Not a wealthy county the residents get their water directly from Terrapin Creek. With Clebourne County finally poised for an economic rebound with the trail systems now in place it makes you wonder why ADEM would issue a permit to a man from Texas to put produced water from a gold mine into Terrapin Creek over the protect signatures of 4500 people from Alabama.
