Now I wanted to call this Hoss's or Little Joe's Cup of Joe, but Gwen figured most letterboxers, unless they watch a lot of reruns, would not necessarily understand the reference. If you have no clue then google up The Cartwrights.

From Springville to Kernville along the Western Divide,
This letterbox is easy, a driveby is the Hide.
The twists and turns have had you on the go
Take some time here with a cup of Joe.
At Cartwright’s home go sit on a flat rock
Twenty three steps south from the corner of the Post Office drop.
From the flat rock turn towards a higher height.
Put your hands on the big boulder but don’t go right.
Up left to the opening where big boulders meet.
Just inside on the left you will find your treat.
The box is hidden under some rocks.
Rehide with care this little box.
After your little rest stop gather up your gear,
Get your bearings as the rest of the boxes are quite near.
If heading south, Freeman Creek you’ve already stamped
But continue on; 3 are Drivebys and one you must tramp
These few more are the Overlook, Leprechaun and Lizard
But they are 3 season boxes so don’t go in a blizzard.
There’s one not mentioned, it’s the best of all.
Hidden in a cavern behind a waterfall.
It’s name was too long to include in this rhyme,
but you’ll spend all day there if you have the time.
