*** MISSING ***

This is a pair of microboxes located at the Chillicothe campus of Ohio University. For several years, the local Quilter's Guild has held a quilt show at the campus. This was the inspiration for these letterboxes.
Placed by Salamander on 9-28-02.
Difficulty: Easy. Ross County,Ohio.

Clues:
Begin at the campus library. At the rear of the building, find a set of steps. Go down the steps and proceed down the sidewalk in an easterly direction. Go all the way to the end of the sidewalk to the point where it makes an abrupt right turn. At this point, take a reading of 350 degrees and go 11 paces to the edge of the woods(1 pace=2 steps).
Continuing in the same direction, take 16 paces into the woods. You should see a Y-shaped fallen tree trunk spanning a small gully. The southernmost fork of this tree splits into another "Y". This is the place you are interested in. To find the second box, walk or drive to the upper parking area near the gymnasium. From some parts of this parking lot, you will be able to see a bright yellow tornado warning siren atop a utility pole. Go to this pole. From here take a bearing of 315 degrees and walk 75 paces.
Check out the base of the cottonwood tree, here you might find a quilting bee!!
