Geocache Description:

Paul n Susan don't really care much for Warden n Ellesmere. If you're not familiar with the intersection, maybe after a visit here you'll feel the same way. Having said that, it's a much better intersection than it used to be.

This is a 5-stage multi, ugh. But really, it won't take THAT long, it's kinda like a like a 5-stage multi for people who don't like long multis. There are 4 physical re-directs (starting with the published co-ordinates). The 4th one provides you with the coordinates to the final stage which holds the logbook. Each stage is different from the others, so what you find at Stage 1 will not be the same type of hide at Stage 2, etc.

Be careful at Warden n Ellesmere. If you take the direct route from stage to stage (like we did), please watch your footing. Be sure to obey all laws, the drivers here are ruthless and impatient. And they honk their horns and wag their fingers a lot. Most of the time the traffic is backed up over the hill, in all directions. The only road at grade here is the railroad. Yes, there are railway tracks here, you'll walk under them for sure, but crossing fences or barriers to get a close look at a passing train (if you like that sort of thing) is illegal and dumb, and won't help you with the cache.

There's parking all over the place here, but finding the most suitable spot is part of the challenge. If you don't drive at all, you're all set.
