Lettterbox Instructions:
From the intersection of the railroad tracks on Southwest Pkwy, follow the RR tracks 237.5 degrees 875 Feet. At that, turn left to 141 Degrees and walk 78 feet. Bring your own inkpad, there is a stamp in the letterbox. Happy hunting!
* I’m setting up this cache for a whole lot of reasons: To finish up this side of the “ToGA Power Walking Trail“, this area needs a “X” cache for the Texoma ABC Challenge, I want to get a Letterbox icon for caches placed, and it’s just so darn fun to hide caches. So enjoy your hike and good caching!
