**I would not suggest this series to anyone with small children
When on Route 16 at the bottom of the hill turn onto Comstock Bridge Road. Drive 0.5 miles and you will see a small dirt parking area to your right.
When in the parking area follow the trail on the right, as you walk down it you will see a small trail come off it to the left, take that until you come to a big group of rocks on the river. Look across the river and you will see a large rock tower (similar to the one you should be standing on) straight across from you. Cross the river any way you can as long as you end up by the large rock "tower". Once across have the "tower" be on your left. Where the wall changes heights look to the bottom; the first letterbox will be hidden there.
From this point look straight ahead of you, there is somewhat a trail but you just have to get to the top of the hill. So trekk all the way up the steep hill to the top. Once there, there will be a trail; take it to the right. You will quickly meet up with another trail perpendicular to the one youre on; take this one to the right as well. As you walk you will be able to see the rive (at the bottom of the steep hill) to your right. You will start to go slightly uphill and you meet up with yet another perpendicular trail; take it to the left. Go about 20-23 paces and stop. Look to your right and walk towards the rocks aligning a dip in the ground. In between 2 skinny birch trees there is a rock, the second letterbox will be there. **SIDE NOTE: at this point you will also see 2 sister oak trees. Behind these is a letterbox. It's not mine but I was going to hide mine there but it seemed to be a popular spot.
Go back to the trail and continue walking. You'll go downhill a little bit a pass a trail on your left (take note of this trail for the next box, but dont take it yet), but keep walking on. You will then see 3 sister trees clustered together making a triangle (the one in front has a blue mark on it). Behind the trees a little to the right is a rotted stump about 1 foot tall. The third box will be here.
Go back to the trail taking a left to back track. Take the trail mentioned before on your right. As you walk down it to your left will be a small clearing. To the left of the clearing is a large fallen over dead tree. walk over to the tree where there is a tall tree to its right. The final box will be there.
walk out of the clearing and take the trail on your right to make it back. **Be careful walking down the steep hill and back across the river. Safe travels and good luck letterboxing!
