This letterbox is located in John Prince Park, a beautiful public facility bordering Lake Osborne. The park offers a wide variety of recreational interests, from boating and picnicking, to bike paths, bird-watching, tennis, camping, a heart trail, playgrounds and nature trails that wind through the Florida scrub.
Terrain: Paved path, grass, and sandy patches.
Access: No charge to enter the park.
Compass: Bring one with you.
Time to find this box: It should take about 15 minutes.
Created by: The 2 Steppers.
Directions:
From I-95 take the Lantana Road exit, travel west to Congress Ave., and turn north on Congress Ave. Enter the park at the Congress Avenue entrance, located midway between Lantana Ave. & 6th Avenue South. Go straight at the 4-way stop and continue following the road past a wooden foot bridge. You will pass restrooms on your right. Turn right into the parking lot that is just past the small playground on your right. Stay to the left side of the parking lot and park in the northwest corner. Between the lot and the lake you will see a paved bike/walking path.
Start your search by walking in a northwesterly direction on the path. After you pass three picnic shelters, turn onto a concrete path that leads to a brick circle and walk to the bench. From the center of the back of the bench walk straight ahead on a bearing of 250 degrees(WSW) between two slash pines (the pine on the left is leaning) until you come to a small pine at the beginning of a small clearing. At that pine, on a bearing of 230 degrees(SW), you will see another pine that’s in the center of that clearing. From that pine in the center of the clearing look northwest on a bearing of 318 degrees and you will see a cluster of three large palmetto palms. At the base of the “Trio” you will find the box beneath some palm fronds.
Please rehide the box with the palm fronds better than you found it.
