Talladega NF and the Chattahoochee-Oconee NF's in Georgia were hit really hard in the 50's-70's. They mostly have recovered now but several pocket areas like hollers where smog accumulated got killed flat. Then rain erosion set in and carved big gullies down the west side of the hills.
I did a study that included a section on that kind of erosion in the hills.
