timebandits: When I placed this letterbox, over 8 years ago on a very cold day in January, the large-fallen-hollow tree was a home both to my letterbox and I'm sure many woodland animals. There is not much left of the tree today, as it has mostly returned back to earth.
Congratulations to all the geocachers who ventured out and found Grandfather Oaks. Looking forward to finding a new cache placed by another cacher now that this area is open. There are lots of great hiding spots!
