At about 600 feet, the view from Little Mountain Overlook at Jeff Busby Campground is commanding in central Mississippi.

At the Natchez Trace Parkway, the term "viewshed" is simply defined as what can be seen from the Parkway.  The landscapes surrounding the Parkway are in a constant state of change. Urban sprawl and changing agricultural patterns present challenges to the future viewshed of the Natchez Trace Parkway. 

Take a look at the photo gallery to see some of the views that can be enjoyed today along the Parkway, and hopefully by future generations.
