This letterbox is located in the Scioto Trails State Park South of Chillicothe, OH. Enter the park from U.S. Route #23 (south of Chillicothe – north of Waverly) and drive past the fire tower to Park Road #1. After a short distance on Park Road #1, turn right on Park Road #4. Follow Park Road #4 about 1 tenth of a mile to a parking area on the right. Park your vehicle and admire the fabulous view of the southern Ohio hills then make your way to the most northerly end of the bench that is placed at the front of the parking area by the large rocks. Standing behind this bench, take a bearing of 308° and go about 17 paces (1 pace = 2 steps). You should find yourself at the edge of the woods where a small trail leads into the woods. Follow this trail about 16 paces to a blackened stump right beside the trail. From this stump, take a bearing of 240° and go about 4 paces to a small pile of sticks and leaves that conceals our Sythian fish. Have fun and if you find it email us at bigguy9210@yahoo.com and let us know how it’s doing.
