This trail starts along Mountain Brook Parkway, just east of Highway 280, and winds along Shades Creek for almost two miles, offering a secluded refuge in the center of Mountain Brook.
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 Jemison Park Greenway 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
