This box is in Woodland Lake Park in the eastern part of Pinetop-Lakeside. The box is at an elevation of about 6700 feet; so, there will probably be snow on it at least a part of the year. From Show Low, go southeast on State Highway 260 to Pinetop-Lakeside and continue through the town. After passing the Burger King on the right and the Best Western Motel across from it on the left, continue for about 0.7 mile and turn right on Woodland Lake Rd. There is a brown sign with the street name on top at this intersection and a Chevron Station on the corner. Drive 0.2 mile and turn right on the first road into Woodland Lake Park. Go to the end of the road and park. There are trail maps in boxes at the start of the trails at this trailhead.
Look for the Meadowview Trail sign on the west side of the road and walk west on this trail. The trail will soon go down a slope and just before it flattens out into the meadow, you will see a single tall pine tree on the right side of the trail with a blue diamond trail blaze (2022 - the diamond is white, not blue now) on it. From the northwest side of this tree, go at about 314 degrees (from mag. north) for about 41 steps to a three-trunked pine tree. From the northeast side of this tree, go at about 318 degrees up slope for about 28 steps to two small boulders that have split off from each other. They are about in the middle of a large rock jumble of lichen-covered rocks. The inside surfaces of the two rocks look clean and fresh, and the outside surfaces are lichen covered (about 2 steps northwest of these two rocks is a hedgehog cactus cluster). The box is hidden on the northwest side of the north split rock under some rocks and plant debris.
Please be sure the contents are double ziplocked when you put them back in the box (ie. the stamp is in a ziplock, the book is in a ziplock, and the two are in the larger ziplock bag), and put all of it INSIDE the box. Please rehide the box well under rocks and plant debris so that it can not be seen from any direction.
After finding the box, you may want to enjoy hiking more of this park.
I will not be able to check on this box very often; so, please let me know if you find it, or if it is missing so that I can delete the clues:
