This is a letterbox, there are no trade
items. Instead you trade stamp images - you collect the
letterbox's stamp image. And leave your signature stamp image.
The coords take you right to the letterbox (use the directions
below if you prefer to find it letterboxing style).
There is parking at N43 26.770 W80 14.847 (#6710 on CR34).
Letterboxing-style directions:
- The cache is approximately 500 metres from the parking
lot.
- From the parking lot take the trail past the 'Trails
Discovery' sign, you will be walking NW approx. 315
degrees.
- A marsh will be below you on your right. Walk about 150 steps
(100 metres) from the trailhead where you'll come to a
T-intersection with a trail just ahead of you and down hill.
- Walk 15 steps to that trail then continue walking NW 315-330
degrees. As you walk you will see forest to your right and to your
left through the trees you'll see a farmer's field.
- After 275 metres the path will start to turn to the right and
you will see a smaller path to your left that slopes down towards
the farm. Take the small path.
- Walk approximately 25 steps until you come to a Y-intersection.
At the Y-intersection face the farm's "no trespassing" sign. The LB
is in a tree to your right (west) approx. 5-6 steps.
- Replace the LB and cover it up. It's right next to the trail so
it's easy to spot if it's not covered up well.
I have placed my hand-carved stamp in each of
the boxes. Bring your own ink (Crayola washable markers make great
ink tools if you don't have an ink pad). If you carry a letterbox
"passport"/journal, use the letterbox's stamp to stamp your
passport. If you have a signature stamp, please stamp the log book.
If you do not have a stamp, leave a drawing (stick figure
drawings and happy faces would be just fine you do not have to be a
Picasso or a Da Vinci), or a sticker or a fingerprint
or pawprint, or try a nature print using a leaf or flower as a
nature stamp, and
sign the log. Stamps are cheap at Michael's and scrapbooking stores
or make your own with
an eraser and an exacto knife. Join the fun!
Please, don't take my stamp! |
Not recommended during mosquito season VERY
VERY buggy - LOTS OF MOSQUITOS in the summer months. If
you go, wear bug spray.
