All caches are hidden EAST of the path a short distance
Stage one is just coordinates. Stage two is a 16oz HDPE jar. 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.
Pit Stop
If you need a pit stop, there is a path down to Route 22 just south of the bridge. Several fast food chains are represented near the intersection. It can be a nice place to pick up some caffeinated sugar water to help you along the way.
And yes, Coca Cola really did used to contain cocaine. In fact, today the Coca Cola company is the sole customer for essence of coca leaves, produced by Stepan Company which has the only DEA permit for importing coca leaves. Of course they remove the cocaine from the leaves before the essence is used in the modern cola.
