This was one of the first stamps I carved, but it took me a while to find just the right spot for it. It is the logo of one of my favorite comic book characters.
The box is located at the lookout tower in Mt. Tom State Park on the Litchfield/Washington border. Here is a link to learn more about the park, including fees, and a map of the trail.

To get to the box follow the map directions to the tower. After going into the tower and climbing a few flights of stairs you'll have a wonderful view. I'm told you can see as far as Massachusetts.
When I was a kid I thought this hike took forever, but it's a nice half-mile hike up to the tower which is barely visible from nearby Rt. 202.
With your back to the tower entrance walk 23 paces to the middle of an old path wide enough for vehicles to go through. Or if you want to skirt around the brush you can still find your way to the path.
From the middle of the trail, with your back to the tower still walk another seven paces. You will find a small boulder pointing up out of the ground. The box is in a cleft at the bottom of the rock.
I ran out of inkpads, so you'll have to bring your own, preferably black.
There are two paths up to the tower so go up one way, and come down the other to enjoy all the park has to offer.
