If things have changed since we did it, please never mind my discouragement. We were visiting a friend at FW and we were staying at CR. This was back in the days of Grad Nights and we got stranded at FW because they stopped all boats and buses at like 7 PM. We decided we could trek through the woods to WL and then walk to CR from there. There was no paved walkway, no lights, and no signs (it was dark so we probably couldn't have read them anyway). It was NOT the way we wanted to get "Home". Eventually made it but we would not recommend it to anyone. Again, hopefully things have changed and it is better than it was. No more walking between FW and WL for us. We'll use the boats and ask when they stop running.
