Salem Road is a gravel road that traverses the northern section of the De Soto National Forest in the Chickasawhay Ranger District. The road continues north and south outside of the forest as a paved road. Some maps show Salem Road south of Boutwell Road as also being named Touchstone Road, but the Official Forest Service name is Salem Road. When Salem Road intersects Boutwell Road (FR202), the two roads overlap each other for a short distance before Salem Road continues to the south. South of Boutwell Road, Salem Road has some short sections of graded dirt which are prone to muddy conditions during periods of rain. Vehicles need to be equipped to deal with this mud to avoid getting stuck. During dry periods, Salem Road is easy to navigate. There are no camping opportunities along Salem Road. Camping is only allowed in designated dispersed locations of the Chickasawhay Ranger District. There are none of these along Salem Road.
