~The lepidopteras have taken to the marsh!!!!

On a gorgeous, end of winter day, I took a walk with a fellow 'boxer along a beautiful marsh and decided to leave a little something for others to find.

Please bring markers as there is no ink pad in this box.

**This is a hunting area, so be sure to wear blaze orange during hunting season**


Directions:
Please find your way to the Wequetequock Salt Marshes that are located on Palmer Neck Road in Stonington. The trail head parking is on the right after driving 1.5 miles.

Clues:
After parking in the lot, head across the road and walk around the metal gate. Follow the wonderful wide path along the marshes.
After walking a spell, keep an eye out for a well used "deer path" on the left. This will be after you pass through four open, marshy areas-one is quite small. There are also some great rocks here.
Take this trail and walk along the path next to the rocks.
Just as the trail is about to turn right---STOP.
Look to your right and see a gap between two rocks very near the trail.
It is here that you will find a treasure.
Please be sure to re-cover this box well and to "naturalize" it also.
Thank you.
We hope you enjoyed your Marsh Walk.
You can either head back the way you came or continue on for some more great views (and more boxes!!).
