Clues:

Park at the trail head located at the MA/NH border on the left of High Street coming from Dunstable, MA or on the right of Middle Dunstable Road just past Crestwood Dr. if coming from Nashua, NH.

Find the sign marking the trail: ARCHED BRIDGE Conservation Land, it is just to the left of paved parking spot and the trail. Follow the well rutted trail/road along the side of the meadow in into the woods. AS you enter the woods you will see posted white No Motorized Vehicle signs.

Walk for about 5 minutes, stay right at what appears to be a group of trails intersecting.

Locate the leaning Granite Railroad marker on the left with 1894.

Continue straight to a T intersection. Take the wide trail heading left. (The narrow trail to the right is posted No Trespassing.)

When you can see large granite blocks on both sides of the trail and look down to Salmon Brook on the right and the left, leave the trail heading left and look back to see the ARCHED BRIDGE. Go back up to the trail and straight over to see the ARCHED BRIDGE from the other side.

Now back up to the trail, you will continue the way you were originally headed.

From the center of the ARCHED BRIDGE count 90 steps. Stop with the 2 big boulders on your right.

Look to your left to see a grey birch just off the trail. Just beyond it, about 15 steps spy a triple pine.

Nestled in the center of the triple pine is what you seek.

PLEASE! PLEASE! rehide very well.

Return the way you came.
