This box has a hand carved stamp, bring your own stamp pad.
From Interstate 80 take exit #1 in Illinois. Head west towards East Moline. About 1/2 mile from I80 you will see a blue sign that says, "Welcome to Hampton," go another 0.7 miles and you will see a brown sign that reads, "Fisherman's Corner North Recreation Area" to your right -- turn in.
There is a gate there that is closed during the winter. You can still park infront of the gate and walk around.
Head west. Walk all the way through the camp ground. You will see a single building which is the camps w/c. Go to the w/c then walk the tree line towards the river.
Along the tree line you will see a stake with two green lines on it, with a fallen tree laying behind it. Watch your footing as there is a dip in the ground with a drain pipe in it just infront of the stake.
Go to the stake and grab it with your left hand for support, lean over the tree with your right hand and grab the catch of the day.
You may want to continue towards East Moline and find the "Campbell's Island" letterbox from here.
