This is one of the four aircraft hidden at Binder Lake in Jefferson City. To get to Binder Lake, take highway 50 West. Exit at Apache Flats Business 50. Take this until you reach the ball fields and take a right on S. Binder Lake rd. Take a left on Rainbow Dr. and a quick right up the hill.

Follow this up the hill to the pavilion. From the front of the pavilion take the foot trail heading east. Pass a tree running parallel to the trail. Pass the picnic tables and round the corner. Continue until you are standing on a small stone footbridge. We loved this so much that we thought you shouldn't miss it. Go ahead take the joy of standing on it. Then, turn around and head back down the trail where you came from 28 paces. At your three o clock, you will spy a pointed tree trunk perfect for a letterbox. Look in the tree on the ground.

~~NOTE~~ The landscape has changed a little in the area where the box is. Here is a quote from a recent lb'er. "For the C-5 Galaxy, a tree has fallen on the pointy stump; so, it was quite a challenge to find."

If you have some spare time, swing by the rc aircraft landing strip and watch the planes.

Please drop me a line and let me know how the adventure went. Please be sure to secure the lid and remember to properly rehide. Do not be tempted to make it easy for the next finder.
