Geocache Description:

This is a letterbox with a treasure map.

***Cache is not at posted coordinates***
But it is an easy walk.

A cache to find using an old and stained treasure map. It's not quite "National Treasure", but you will have people trying to get there before you.

Treasure map. Also in gallery if this link breaks.

Letterboxing started in Dartmoor, Devon, England in 1854. Letterboxing came to the U.S. because of an article in the April 1998 issue of Smithsonian Magazine. It consists of finding a box through the use of clues, which may be GPS coordinates.

In the letterbox (or "box" for short) is a logbook and a rubber stamp. The stamp remains in the box. The stamp is used to leave an image in the logbook you bring with you. Then you use your personal stamp to leave an image in the logbook inside of the box. If you don't have a personal stamp then please use the geocaching logbook. In true letterboxing style, you will need to bring your own inkpad. Black ink is recommended.

There are several letterboxes in the Ogden area if you'd like to join us in letterboxing.

Congratulations to Dix1, Del2u, yung@hart, 321cacher123 and Bink n Jud' (geocachers) and Boxer Lover47 (letterboxer) and hubby for being first-to-find. I heard about the mob that converged on the cache location.
