The West Bull Creek Greenbelt is a nice wooded area along West Bull Creek. Though not connected to its neighboring Bull Creek Greenbelts, it has nice hiking in the woods and a chance to letterbox. I couldn't find an official parking area or trailhead, but I found a way in off a parking lot for Samsung.

Directions:
From Hwy 360 go northwest on RR 2222 about 1 mile to light at Jester Blvd, continue 0.2 mile and turn right at second road past light. At Samsung building turn left and go around to far north corner and park facing woods, which is the West Bull Creek Greenbelt.

Clues:
Cross around or over a cement culvert and head northeast on rock trail, going straight through a 4-way jct to a Y-jct. Go right, soon going down and up through a gully, then through a barbed-wire fence to a large metal fence on left where another trail joins you. Continue straight with fence on left as trail descends then ascends, and as it levels off look for a boulder on right several feet away. Continue on trail 50 steps to just before trail starts descending again, then go right uphill to big multi-trunk cedar tree. LB is at back base under rocks.


Hike length: 1 mile
