Siamese's Birthday box was originally planted in Palmetto, FL. It then up and came with us as Siamese's Personal Traveler. It has now returned to its status as a regular box. It eventually will be planted in central VT, our childhood and young adult home.

Siamese is much more interested in letterboxing friends and acquaintances signing and stamping the log. So it is an easy find.

Clues:

Find your way to Nagog Hill Conservation Area on Nagog Hill Rd (strangely) in Acton. Grab a copy of the trail map and just go along into the woods. Left at first Y.

Continue along over a nice board walk and through an interesting field. You will come to a sign showing three options, none of which you need presently.
Turn right.
You will come to a blue-blazed trail going off to the right. Continue straight ahead on yellow and, surprise!, there will be another blue-blazed trail on the right. Take it. You are now on blue.
After going through a stone wall, you will see a small field of large boulders, one of which juts out into the trail on the right. From that boulder, count four steps, and turn 90 degrees (right angle, not compass).

Count 12 steps passing a large boulder on the left. On your right will be a tree with very shaggy bark (might even be a shagbark hickory). Siamese's box will be at the base of that tree covered with leaves and sticks.

This is an especially precious box, treat it very well.

After finding the box and, if you haven't gotten Nagog Hill or Icarus yet, hope you brought the clues. They are not terribly far away.
