The stamps in this series are carved adaptations of five of the artist M. C. Escher's designs.

To find these boxes, head to Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center between Nazareth and Wind Gap, PA. Park in the lot at the intersection of Belfast Road and Keller Road.

Devils:

* Take the trail heading south.

* Ignore the power line trail.

* A trail comes in from the left. Take it down the hill.

* After crossing two small footbridges, look on the right for a large standing dead tree, looking something like a totem pole.

* Walk 15 more paces. On the right, spot a large downed tree.

* Look behind the tree, about 1-2 feet from the roots.

Rind:

* Continue on the trail.

* At the crossroads, turn left to cross over Sobers Run, and then left again to go upstream.

* When the trail leaves the stream, go 110* on the upper trail.

* The trail pivots to the right around a large rock.

* Just past the rock, look into the bowl on the right for a long log about 15 feet away.

* SPOR under the northeast end.


Knots:

* Continue on the trail.

* Take the right fork (don’t go to the road).

* Come to a small clearing, a nexus of MTB trails. Take any of them heading southeast-ish. They all merge again soon.

* Look for a red arrow in a green blaze. Follow that arrow toward the bridge.

* Just before the bridge, go right. Walk 25 paces to a tall V-tree on the right.

* SPOR around back.


Regular Division of the Plane III:

* Now go back, and cross the bridge.

* Take the trail at 255*.

* Ignore the power line trail, and the first many-green cross trail.

* At another red arrow, go right at 330*. (This is just before the trail opens up a bit.)

* If you see red/green blazes, you’re on the right track.

* Meander up the hill. When you start heading downhill slightly, keep an eye open on the left for a 3-tree with all three trunks in a perfect line. (It’s about 7 paces off the trail, and is mossy at the bottom.)

* SPOL in back.


Möbius Strip 1:

* Continue downhill on the trail.

* The trail gets steeper. At the T, go right. You’ll soon hit the main green trail. Turn left onto the green trail.

* Make a right onto the first marked trail.

* At the fourth crossbeam, look to the left for a warty V-tree.

* Look in the nook behind SPOR.
