CLUES: Updated and correct. Thanks to The Puddlejumpers for their help. These clues are moderately difficult – it will take you a while once you find the “code book” so plan some time, bring some scrap paper and a pencil, and you’ll figure it out. Mother M Clan enjoys letterboxes with some clue work to do so this one’s placed in honor of her.

TRAIL: 1.8 miles, rolling. Expect some bushwhacking as well.

STAMP: Hand-carved – one of Father M Clan’s first.
LOGBOOK: Pathetic. The one I bought didn’t fit in the box so I had to rig up this one last minute. But it works...

Make sure you grab a map before heading onto the trail. You'll need it.

Sit at the bench in the shelter facing “Panther Mound” in a state park on Hwy. M just north of Madison, WI.

Enjoy wondering about Native Americans and mound-building (not to mention panthers in Wisconsin and how this mound could possibly look like a large feline). While wondering, find a place nearby that will tell you the information you desire.

(I’ll be kind and tell you not to try and solve this code until you’re “on-site.” You should be able to get it then.)

Please be discreet as you retrieve the box and stamp in. Replace it well-hidden. This is our first place and we’d hate to lose this thing early.

Please let me (email the placer) know the condition of the box and how the hunt went.

Enjoy,
Father M Clan
