This letterbox is at Menotomy Rocks Park, in Arlington.

Start at the Jason St. entrance. Follow the gravel path until you reach the Pond. Take a right at the fork. Pass the Slippery Elm tree marker on your left. Continue on until you see two green benches under a boulder on your right, and to your left, steps that lead down into the water. Walk on and keep the pond on your left. You should walk past a fire hydrant and hollowed out stump. Walk along the curved cement along the pond's edge. With cattails on your left, keep following the cement, but look for turtles on a sunny day (we saw five!) A patch of invasive duckweed has killed some of the cattails and reeds. At the end of the cement you will see a fork in the road with two signs on it it. Beyond the path to the right lies a boulder and just behind that is a tree with an upside-down sign. Walk twenty-three paces uphill from this tree, to the left of a fallen log. From there, climb to directly in front of the Greek graffiti. Side step five paces to your right and continue ten paces to the top of the hill. Stand at the stump surrounded by oak saplings. Follow the gaze of the stump's blind eye and walk twenty-three paces in it's direction to the adolescent birch. Four feet down from the birch you will see a rock with a bowl. Under this bowl you will find your prize.

PLEASE REHIDE WELL!!!

Enjoy!
