This Geocache is located somewhat near railroad tracks.
Do not cross the tracks! Park to the east and take the access road
south of the tracks!
Or.. of course, take the bike path. :) The path has access under
the tracks and is the recommended way.
A GeoGolf Adventure!
This is a series of 19 caches which will take you along the Des
Plaines River Bike trail.
The Series can be done in triads (3 at a time) or all at once.
I have ridden these trails since I was 10 and I hope you enjoy them
as much as I did.
Thanks to 'The Lone Ranger' team for bringing this concept to the
Chicago area!
* This is a new cache at a new location. If you have already found
this cache before 12-1-08 please feel free to hunt, find and log
this cache again. Have fun!

Daredevil Hill
First constructed as a backstop for a shooting range used by the
local law enforcement agencies. Sometimes my friends and I would
hear gunshots and race over to see what was going on. Sometimes
they would even be using automatic weapons.
The mound became a source of enjoyment summer and winter alike.
The double dipper hill to the south is the namesake hill and if you
build up enough speed on the first hill you can become airborne for
quite a distance coming off of the second.
The rolling hill to the east is called Rolley Coaster. Taken at a
medium speed, it can be quite fun.
