**Stamp will be replaced in December 2007 -- the current stamp was the first one I ever made, and it was before I had proper carving tools (I used a kitchen knife before).**

**There is poison ivy in the vicinity of this box--be careful!**

"Books you don't need in a place you can't find."

...well, hopefully you can find it.

Once you locate the place to which this slogan belongs (the name of the letterbox should help), park in one of the several parking areas. There are two main structures here, both painted red.

Head down and around back (and to the west of the larger building), to the deck. You'll see the Sawmill River, flowing off to the west. If you happened to have parked in the lot nearby, you'll see the deck right away.

Head roughly west to the small gravel parking lot, which is behind another building--this one white. There is a driveway connecting the parking lot to the road, up a slight hill.

Stand at the border of the driveway (which is paved) and the parking lot (which is gravel). Walk about 28 paces roughly west, across to the other edge of the lot. You'll see a small trail that runs towards the river and a small, abandoned storage building near the entrance.

Head about 42 paces or so down the trail (if you fall into the river, you've gone too far ;)), until you see a smaller trail (which might be somewhat overgrown in the summer) heading off to the left, or in the direction of the red buildings you first saw when you arrived.

Look for a tree that has 5 large trunks and 1 small trunk growing together. You'll find the box within.

Please re-hide well with bark and leaves!
