Cache Location
The Longleaf Trace is South Mississippi's premier running, biking, hiking, and equestrian trail. It is a beautiful linear park, 44 miles long and fairly flat, extending from Downtown Hattiesburg through the towns of Sumrall, Bassfield, Carson, and Prentiss. The trail is 10-feet wide and paved with asphalt, making the Trace simple and enjoyable to navigate. On any given day, you are likely to find a large number of locals and visitors traveling the path, which was formerly a line on the railroad system - an uber-successful Rails-to-Trails Conservancy project, the longest rail trail in the state of Mississippi.
The Hide
The cache is an ammo can hidden in typical fashion, just off the hiking/mountain biking trail adjacent to the parking lot.
