This is the first letterbox/geocache hybrid in Louisiana.

Your starting point will be the Holmes Cemetary, near the junction of
LA 41 and the LA 435 Spur, north of Talisheek, LA. From the Holmes
Cemetary sign, look for a sign at 10. From this new point bear 158
and look for a trail into the woods. Use caution and find the correct
trail. You are looking for one that a vehicle could not drive on.
The trail is actually a gully between 2 small hills Follow the gully
till it makes a sharp turn to the right. Follow through the "S" until
your trail is blocked by a log. From this log go about 15 feet at 198.

This box has a stamp and log book and some cache items to trade.
