Answer to your question: yes I would hike a trail to find a cache every
1/4 mile -- sounds like fun to me!

They both Artemis and Coadmin suggested doing a multicache!But then you
have to ask why?The only thing a multicache does is conceal the amount
of caches that are actually in an area since each point is not shown on
a map! A few of you stated you would rather do a multicache,could you
please explain why?From what I have seen multicaches don't get nearly
the amount of hits that traditional caches do which tells me there is
not as much interst in them!If you were finding a cache every 1/4 mile
along a trail would you be more inclined to hike the whole trail?
