In reply to Lance. I noticed last weekend that the "missing" section of Abbotts Creek Trail is now "complete" and passable (technically they were still working on handrails on the boardwalk/bridge). So now it's possible to access the North Wake Landfill trails from the Neuse River trail without leaving the Greenway!

In reply to a j caristo. A.J. — I haven't had a chance to map the whole trail yet (I'll do that next week), but from what I've pieced together it looks like the actual number may be closer to your figure (my partial figures come up to 6.46, and I'm guessing I'm not missing much more than a quarter mile). I'll report back with full numbers. Thanks for the vigilance!

In reply to JoeMiller. using gps and cateye miti8 on my mountain bike. i start at the soccer complex entry way (by the way, a bad location on weekends to access the trail) adjacent to field #7 and proceed to the end at falls of neuse road by the dam. the last mile marker before the complex i believe reads 6 1/4 miles so it's even marked at that distance. i'm not complaining, i'm very thankful, just want to know where the other 2 miles might be. thanks for answering.
