NOTE: Since our placement of this microbox, apparently the robotic dinosaurs have invaded the area! The box is still there, but this nearby tent may add a little difficulty.
PLACED BY: The Gentleman, Flicker, Gryphon, and Ruby Tuesday
DIFFICULTY: Easy, but requires a little subterfuge
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: All 3 boxes in this series may be obtained without paying an entrance fee.
This microbox is hidden out in the open, but even on one of the busiest weekends of the year, there were almost no people around. Our suggestion is to buy a drink at the nearby vendor and pretend to be quenching your thirst as you reach below to get this box! (This hiding spot requires a little muscle-power)
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Being the 12th ruler of Egypt's 18th Dynasty is not all it’s cracked up to be, you know. Even though I was responsible for some pretty sweet building carried out at the temples of Karnak and Luxor , all the credit was claimed by Horemheb, my gnarly old advisor. And even though I gave in to extreme pressure and changed my name to Tutankhamun (meaning "Living Image of Amun, Ruler of Upper Egyptian Heliopolis",) it did not prevent me from being omitted from the classic kings’ lists….man, give a guy a break!!! So I decided to take a holiday from the old grind…. I took a voyage of discovery…
CLUES: After visiting the rainforest box, continue across the bridge. At the first possible spot, marked by a yellow water meter and red fire hydrant, take sidewalk to the left, lined by 5 tall white lamp poles. To your left you will see a smaller light post, walk about 4 steps to the low concrete block wall. There will be about 7 stones to the corner. Count 4 stones from the edge to your right, lift the concrete very slightly and look below for the microbox.
Please replace carefully in the exact spot so that future letterboxers will find it, too!
