Geocache Description:

Micro, small camo Altoids tin, bring your own writing implement. At southern end of the Riverfront Trail, this is BIBB (Best If By Bike), but could be a park & walk.

The southern segment of the Riverfront Trail is also the levee road, used by public works crews. It's part of the citywide trail system and is open to bicycle and pedestrian traffic, but the only safe public access to it is either 10th & Missouri (near this cache) or 2nd & Hickory to the north. NOTE: As of 8/27/12 the section north of 2nd & Hickory is still posted as being "closed," although cyclists and walkers appear to still use it.

No matter which access you use, DO NOT PARK on or adjacent to the levee road. The trail runs between the BNSF tracks to the west and the river to the east; do not trespass or gain access in either of those directions. Access is only from the north and southern trailheads. Check BIBB#9 for more information about the northern trailhead.
Another cache in honor of notable Omaha natives, this one highlights the unusual fact that two of the most celebrated screen actors of the 1950s, Montgomery Clift and Marlon Brando, were both born here. Although friendly to each other, they were sometimes considered rivals.
