TWC - Letterbox 3
Letterboxing is an outdoor hobby that combines elements of orienteering, art, and puzzle solving. Letterboxers hide small, weatherproof boxes in publicly accessible places (like parks) and distribute clues to finding the box in printed catalogs, on one of several web sites, or by word of mouth. Individual letterboxes contain a notebook and a rubber stamp, preferably hand carved or custom made. This cache is a letterbox hybrid, so it is not at the posted coordinates. To obtain the first stage of the coordinates, solve the puzzle below, and receive further instructions in the checker.
