**Please
bring a stamp pad.
Driving directions: US-50 to Rapid Forge Road;
then 2 miles on Rapid Forge Rd. to park entrance. Follow entrance
road .5 mile, then turn left.Take this road to the parking area below
the spillway. CLUES: From the west end of the parking area, head
down the trail past the "Warning-Blast of Horn...." sign. Proceed
until you come to some wire "netting" attached to the cliff face to
your left.Stop. Here is where you will need to go backward in order
to go forward in your letterbox quest. From where you stopped at the
beginning of the wire netting, turn around and backtrack for 24
paces.Stop. Face south. There should be a large stone outcropping,
which looks somewhat like a buffalo head, just ahead of you and to
the left. (O.K., maybe I have a vivid imagination here.)Ten feet to
the right of the buffalo head is a tree. A Lepidoptera is hiding at
the base of the tree behind a rock.
