There used to be a regular cache here but now it's gone. It's interesting to find history right on the side of the road. There's only enough parking for 2 - 3 cars.
Near this location was the birthplace of Chief Whitepath in what was then Turnip Town.
Nunnahitsunega or Whitepath was a full-blooded Cherokee Indian. He believed in the traditional ways and fought against the modernization of the Cherokees including the rejection of Christianity and a new constitution that was adopted by the Cherokee council. He died at the age of 77 near Hopkinsville, Kentucky while leading his people to Oklahoma on the "Trail of Tears".
To get credit for this cache send the following as proof you were here:
1. How far away from the marker was Chief Whitepath's cabin?
2. What are the two words on the nearby road sign?
3. Upload a picture of you (or your phone/GPS) at the location without giving away answers.
