Old Trace
Preserved here is a portion of a nearly 200 year old postal road, the Old Natchez Trace. Maintaining this 500 mile long
wilderness road in the early 1800s was a difficult if not hopeless task.

As you look or walk down this sunken trace section nor the large trees growing on the edge of the section we clear
today. These trees are mute testimony to the endless struggle between man to alter and change, and
nature to reclaim, restore and heal.
