Any of you familiar with the Natchez Trace? Its a 444 mile state maintained parkway that runs diagonally through the entire state of MS beginning at Natchez, goes thru the NW corner of AL and into TN.
The speed limit is 35mph and is heavily patrolled by unmarked police vehicles. The road becomes very monotonous after a while and 35 is hard to maintain. Due to this it's not a drive you want to make in just one day. The scenery is just like the pictures in this article except there is plentiful wildlife seen all during the day. As darkness approaches here come the deer in numbers. You would not want to attempt to drive this road at dark or even twilight. Many fearless deer and wild turkey's everywhere.
There are no gas stations, hotels or businesses of any kind on the parkway but there's plenty of crossroads that will take you to nearby towns. Running out of fuel will not be a concern if you ever take the drive.
