This letterbox is located on top of Bell Mountain. Easiest route is up the south ridge on the East side. From Corwin Rd go North on Dale Evans Pkwy .4 miles, then turn West .on dirt road for .4 miles, then North for .3 miles to base of mountain. Look for or make your own trail up.

While standing at the highest point atop Bell Mountain, from the flagpole, go Northwest (310 degrees - inline with the freeway bridge) about thirty feet, to the large boulder there. The letterbox is under a rocks, near the bottom of its North side. May be some broken red glass in the area.

There are quite a few people that climb up to, and around, the top, as well as a nearby geocache, so please replace the letterbox in its completely hidden location. I will not be checking on this box, very often so please notify me if found or attempted. Thank you.
