Walk in the Woods - Briar Patch Traditional Cache
NCreviewer: As there's been no cache to find for a long time, I'm archiving it to keep it from showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

Walk in the Woods - Briar Patch

This end of the Walk in the Woods series is the most difficult. It is, as its name implies, in a briar patch and one that, even in the dead of winter is nearly impassable.
There are five caches along this route, taking you through woodland, past ponds, across creeks, along deer trails and more easily travelled sewer line throughways if you like.
This should be the end of your journey if you start with the Stump cache and will be the most difficult no matter which route you take to get here. We all have Bear to blame for this one. He crawled on hands and knees to get it where it sits and picked thorns out of his scalp for over a week for his efforts. If you do not have leather gloves and a thick jacket I wouldn't recommend this. And do NOT send children in, please! They'll love the contents and the container but .... toss it out to them and have someone toss it back to you so you only have to go into the thicket once.
The sewer and powerline accessess here will lead you back to the road if you continue to follow the one that runs alongside the cache or you can go back to the last intersection and from there turn left, following the power lines out to the road.
