The first box is missing.
Please be mindful of the old walls, Do not take stones out of them unless you can put them back as you found them.

So, I got a bunch of new Christmas related stamps - sorry, all store bought - in my Christmas stocking and I never finished planting the ones I already had. So off we went to try to get some or all of them planted. Didn't quite make all but tomorrow is another year!

Make your way to Session Woods on Rt 69 in Burlington. Go in and park in the big lot. Make your way to the Forest Meadow Trail between the gazebo and the Education Building. This is a loop trail, .6 miles long. You can go either way. The clues are written for a clockwise trip.

Wreathcycling - Look for the Evergreen Cover Planting sign. Stand in front of it. Look for the American Beech. Behind the beech and at the wall is a two closely related sisters. Go about 4' to the right of that and look in the wall behind the branches.

Be careful of the wall and make sure the box is well covered when you're done.

Stocking Stuffed - Look for the Stone Wall sign. Stand facing it and look over your left shoulder. You would have seen a big 3 sisters tree when this was originally planted, however, it has been cut down. So look for a stump. The stocking is stuffed behind it. Cover well when you're done.

Today was a relatively quiet day here and we still were not able to plant and find boxes totally unobserved. So just try to be as discreet as possible.
