Traveling west on I-10, just after entering New Mexico, turn into the rest area & visitor information center. Park on the east side of the lot by picnic ramada #18.

Walk on the concrete sidewalk going northeast. Go to the most northerly picnic ramada (Jan 2022, concrete pad). From the northeast corner of the ramada, go at about 42 degrees (from mag. north) for about 52 steps to a cluster of Yuccas with a Mormon Tea (Ephedra) Bush on their left. The box is between the northern most Yucca and the Mormon Tea Bush under a white rock covered with some plant debris. Be very alert for snakes.

Please please be sure the contents are double ziplocked when you put them back in the box (i.e. the stamp is in a ziploc, the book is in a ziploc, and the two are in the larger ziploc bag), and put all of it INSIDE the box. Please rehide the box well under the rock and cover with plant debris so that it can not be seen from any direction.

I will not be able to check on this box; so, please let me know if you find it, or if it needs attention or is missing:
