This letterbox is a 4th anniversary gift to my husband and the 2nd box I’ve planted for him. Tarrywile Park and Mansion in Danbury, CT is a lovely place to walk, picnic, and letterbox. There are several other good letterboxes in the park. I encourage you to visit their website prior to your trip to learn about the park, the historic mansion, and to print out a copy of their trail map. http://www.danbury.org/tarry/.
Every time we walk in the park together, we make mention of our cats at home and how we wish they could visit Tarrywile with us. I planted “Dancing Cat” so there will be a kitty waiting for us when we visit the park. If all goes well, it should only take you about 7 minutes to find this box from the parking lot.
Park in the upper parking lot on Brushy Hill Road (off of Southern Blvd). The driveway will take you to a gravel parking lot above the mansion. Park near the greenhouse.
Walk down the grassy slope between the dumpsters in the lot and the corner of the greenhouse. You will spot a white arrow trail marker next to a shed with a “dog waste” sign. Follow the small dirt trail and go down the grassy hill. At the bottom on the hill, directly on your right, you will see an entrance to a trail between 2 wooden posts. Enter the trail and take 3 paces in. To your left, you will see a thin unmarked trail going into the woods.
Enter the trail and go straight up toward the rocks on the hill. At the top, you will come to a skinny cut off tree stump on your left. It will be followed by the remains of an old rock wall. Walk through the break in the “wall” and immediately turn to your left. Dancing Cat is hidden in a nook facing the tree with the brown blaze. Please rehide well.
You can retrace your steps to return or follow the directions below to find my “3B Box”.
Once you go back down the hill and leave the woods, to your left is another path going downhill. If you follow that to the bottom and hang a left, you can use the “3B Box” directions starting from: “Keep walking along the path and past the silo until you come to two posts framing the path.” From the posts it’s about 2 miles to the box. Feel free to contact me with any box updates. Thanks for visiting!
