Geocache Description:

Welcome to the San Elijo Hills Green Trail - enjoy the "green tips" you will encounter! Green tip #11 - Don't dispose, use reusable utensils. Hey kids, start by bringing reusable utensils and a lunch box to school instead of throw aways.

There are 18 caches in the trail. PLEASE RESPECT ALL LANDSCAPING by staying on or very near the trail. The parking spots below position you at different entry points into the trails depending upon where you wish to start.

The San Elijo Hills Green Trail is intended to be fun and educational. We all can do more to live as sustainably as possible so that we not only save money for ourselves in the short term but ensure scarce resources like water, minerals, food and energy will be available for the long term future without causing undue harm to our planet. Each cache contains a “green tip” that is fairly easy and cheap without major lifestyle changes.

The Green trail from #10 thru #17 are tips, caches and a trail suitable for kids, while the remainder are good for all but require a bit more hiking. In particular, there is very steep terrain between Green #2 and #3 so make sure you have your walking pole!

Green tip #11: Reuse those utensils!

Use cloth napkins and washable plates. (We buy those cheap packs of 10 washcloths from Target and use them at mealtimes for napkins). When eating at home or on vacation, bring reusable plates and napkins. Check to see if there is a way to wash plates and napkins when you get back home, instead of buying paper and plastic that gets thrown away after one use. If you absolutely must buy disposable items, buy ones that are petroleum free and 100% compostable.
