Green Street Gem!
The trail is approximately 6 miles--walkable in a couple or three hours, though the preferred method for most cachers is probably to solve all the so-called puzzles and to take two cars, dropping one at one end of the trail and driving the other to the other end. A considerable portion of your walk will be on pavement, whether walking/biking trails or the shoulder of a highway. Many of the cache containers are of the same type, so you'll usually know what to look for. When you encounter bison tube containers, please remember to replace logs by putting them into the UPPER halves of the tubes (the male parts, which have the threads on the OUTSIDE); then slip the female ends over logs as they protrude from the upper halves; and, finally, carefully screw the halves together. If logs extend from the bottom of the bisons above the threads, and if you place the logs into the bottom halves first, when you attach the upper halves, the logs will be scrunched and chewed up by the threads of the bisons. Thanks for being careful about this, as well as careful about not cross-threading the bisons, most of which are made of aluminum, a very soft metal and easily cross-threaded.
Special thanks to my dear friend JAF430 for her invaluable help in every phase of this WNW Trail. Truly, I could not have executed this plan without her suggestions for improvements, her finer understanding of html coding, and her boots-on-the-trail assistance in placing hides.
I hope you find this an enjoyable experience, whether you set out to complete it in one fell swoop or grapple with it in segments. Please be especially cautious when you're close to roads, and use common sense and good judgment at all times.
