All caches are hidden EAST of the path a short distance
Stage one is just coordinates. Stage two is a bison capsule inside of a fake sprinkler head. No need to approach the railroad tracks or go on private property for any stage of any cache.
This is a series of caches along the Skokie Valley Bike Path. They are designed to be done while biking (or blading) the trail. Save yourself some extra riding by starting at either #1 or #12 in the series. You can pick up all of the stage-one's in one direction, then get all of the stage-two's in the other direction. Do be warned that while all the caches are very close to the trail, you will be searching in dense brush with thorns! Bike shorts are probably a bad idea.
Crossing Over
The great thing about rails-to-trails is all the almost ready-to-use bridges over busy routes. Without this rail bridge over Route 41, it would be nearly impossible to get across without becoming road kill. Why is it so much fun to stop on bridges like this and just stare at the traffic rushing by below?
