You’ll hear Tennessee often referred to as the Volunteer State. While at the park, take time to appreciate all of the hard work volunteers have done to improve the park. They have helped put up the many foot bridges you walk across on this trail in muddy areas and are currently rerouting the last part of the trail which has become flooded.
Terrain is a 2.5 just because it is a bit of a hike to get here, once at the cache site the terrain is easy to navigate.
This geocache is one in a series of 15 that I have placed along the Cub Lake Trail in Natchez Trace State Park located in Wildersville, Tennessee. Natchez Trace State Park is a 10,154 acre state park located within a 48,000 acre state forest and wildlife management area. Cub Lake is approximately 52 acres in size and the trail around it is approximately 5.8 miles long and considered moderate difficulty. There are approximately 13.5 miles of hiking trails in the park and an overnight trail that is 40 miles long. Other activities at the park include swimming at Cub Lake, boating on various lakes, mountain biking, fishing, and horseback riding. There are also campgrounds and pavilions available for rental.
I would like to thank Walter Pope, park manager, for granting permission for these geocache hides. Please be respectful of the area and stay on the trails for as long as possible. Be sure to bring your boots if you do the whole trail, it can get muddy in sections.
