This box was created to replace a box planted by a child that mysteriously disappeared. We knew we had the right alternative location when we disturbed a toad while hiding the box. The only other time we have seen a toad living in our letterbox hiding spot was when we planted Flying Dragon I. This is a nice hike for a group of kids.

Start off in the Wadsworth Falls parking lot on Cherry Hill Road in Middlefield. Look for the sign with a tree on it. Go 160 degrees over the bridge. At the blinking red light (If your really lucky you might see the train) take 42 paces until you see the Main Trail sign. Head down the trail just 9 paces until you see a trail at 140 degrees. Walk for a bit, then when you see the yellow trail split go 58 degrees between the two trees (look out for poison ivy). Continue down the trail that is now the yellow with black band trail. Go 160 degrees onto the yellow trail. Go up the hill and pass the "snake trees". Wave "Hi" to the neighbors as you go past. When you see the "blazed yellow trees of 'V'ictory" take 15 paces. Stop and head off the trail 280 degrees for 6 paces. What you seek is under a pile of rotting log, leaves and sticks. Enjoy our box, then please hide it completely from view. Any problems please contact the placer.
Happy letterboxing!
