The answers to the questions in the clues for this webbox are located in Joshua Tree National Park in southern California. Letterboxes are not allowed to be physically placed in national parks. So, I have created this webbox. You must actually visit the area of the clues; however, you need to go to the Web to obtain your finders stamp and sign the log book.

Enter Joshua Tree National Park and drive to the trailhead for the Arch Rock Nature Trail which is in the White Tank Campground. Drive into the campground and when the pavement ends, turn left and drive a short distance to the day parking on the left. The trailhead is across the road from the parking.

Start walking on the Arch Rock Nature Trail. You will soon arrive at an interpretive sign titled "The Formation of Granite". In the 1st paragraph, in the 6th line, what is the 2nd word?

Continue walking on the trail. Look for the interpretive sign titled “Dikes”. What is the last word on the sign?

To create the mystery word, put the word from the second question on the end of the word from the first question (without spaces). Paste the mystery word into this URL (replacing the question marks “???” with the mystery word):

Now, plug/paste the new URL into your web browser and you will have completed your search for the Joshua Tree Park Webbox.
