Thanks for all the replies. I wanted to find some land near Bankhead NF because ever since college all my buddies and I do a backpacking trip in the Sipsey during New Years. They all drive up from Mobile/Pensacola and I would love to have a small place I could put a cabin on that borders the national forest. I emailed one land owner who was super nice but not ready to sell anything. I called another one who inherited the land and he lives out of state. He wasn't too happy that I offered him 1500/acre. I thought it was clear cut but in fact that was the land adjacent to his and owned by a timber company. His land was pasture and timber combinations.
