The Lakeshore Trail follows Shades Creek for about three miles through Homewood, passing Homewood High School, Samford University, and Brookwood Mall. A connection to the Jemison Park Greenway is currently under construction, and plans call for the greenway to be extended to the west as well.
This cache is part of the Red Rock Trail (RRT) Series, a series of caches in Jefferson County highlighting the lesser known greenways and trails that help make up the Red Rock Trail System. This system idea was developed by the Freshwater Land Trust with a master plan of 750 miles of interconnected trails within Jefferson County. Right now, the RRT System has a little over 100 miles and is growing each year.
Permission to place this cache on the Lakeshore Trail was granted by the Freshwater Land Trust ( http://freshwaterlandtrust.org). For a comprehensive map of the Red Rock Trail System consult: http://freshwaterlandtrust.org/find-a-trail
