Thanks for the constant updates! This cache has received a lot of attention...and I'm sure will for some time to come..
Access to your trail can be reached by a parking lot on the north side of the canal past Wide Waters Marina. (Only bridge in general area)
About 30 feet off the beaten path is the difficult part. Wear mosquito repellent and pants - don't go down the hill. Check for tics too!
If you take, please leave something as well! Good Luck!
