Easy walk on very flat trail. Good for kids. Some of this land and probably the letterbox is in Bloomfield but since the starting point is West Hartford, I decided to list it that way. Two miles round trip.
Directions (stolen from RTRW)
From the North, South and East: Take I-91 North or South to I-84 West to Exit 40 (New Britain Avenue/Corbins Corner). At the end of exit ramp, take a right onto Ridgewood Road. Follow Ridgewood Road to the end. Take a left onto Farmington Avenue and then take the first right onto Mountain Road. At the second traffic light, take a left onto Albany Avenue. Reservoir #6 is 1.1 miles on the right.

Reservoir #6 is 1.1 miles on the right.
Clues: Park in the first lot as you enter and walk north through two green gates onto a wide dirt path. Soon you'll see that this is a blue blazed trail with lots of No Biking signs. Follow this trail, keeping the reservoir on your right, for awhile or until you see a path to the left of the trail with a No Biking sign. There are several such paths (I think this might be the third or fourth) It is also directly opposite a brick pump building on the far shore of the reservoir. Take this path (slightly uphill) past an open area (more open on the right than on the left) until you come to a culvert running under the path. Stand on the culvert, site 95 to 100 degrees to a two sister tree with a log at it's base. Look between these for Store Bought.
Rehide well and retrace your steps or for a longer walk continue around the reservoir.
