A letterbox, no trade items. Do not trade out the
stamp. Leave it in the box. One of the purposes of a letterbox
is to collect rubberstamp images instead of trinkets. I hope you'll
join in the fun and bring along your personal letterbox
passport/journal (some people like to carry index cards then
scrapbook them later).
Bring your own ink (any colour) if you plan to stamp your
letterbox passport/journal. For more info about LB hybrids see:

Directions:
From the trailhead walk approximately 70 steps then stop. (You will
see the boardwalk up ahead - about 35 steps ahead). The box is 7
steps to your right. In the middle of 3.
Since it is so close to the trail you'll need to keep an eye out
for muggles.
I have added an additional waypoint for the final location. I
want to make my letterboxes serve both the letterboxing community
and the geocaching community. By adding an additional waypoint,
geocachers who prefer finding boxes by coords can do so and those
that prefer the traditional letterbox method can ignore the
additional waypoint.
Winter: may be frozen in.

A little history about Preservation Park (from
www.recycling.org):
Preservation Park opened October 19, 1989. The size of
Preservation Park is equivalent to the acreage of trees saved from
the amount of newsprint collected in the first year of the Curbside
Recycling Program in the City of Guelph. An equivalent acreage of
Rain Forest was purchased in the name of the children of the City
of Guelph. Handicapped accessible trails where paid for by the
proceeds from the sale of recyclable materials from the Recycle
Guelph Drop-off Depot.
