Geocache Description:

Camo-painted .30-cal ammo can, along the Tuxachanie Trail in DeSoto National Forest; one of a series of related caches

Enjoy a hike along this wonderful trail in Southern Mississippi. I made a maintenance visit to my popular Nips-n-Tux cache (waypoint GCB3C8) to verify its condition after the recent controlled burn in the area, and given that the character of the terrain had changed dramatically due to the burn, I decided to archive the previous cache, change/improve the hide location a little, and thus offer previous finders, as well as new searchers, an opportunity to hike this fabulous trail again.

Bring only small-sized items for trade!

You might be able to park closer if you're creative, but it's a pleasant 1.1-mile walk from the parking coordinates indicated below.

Important: Depending on how you approach, be careful with your footing as you get within the final few feet of the cache coordinates...trust me on this.
