This stam was carved & sent to me by Nitrocat. He requested that it be placed along the Pony Express Route.

Clue
Go to Camp Floyd.
Look for the Place in the photo.
Slightly in back and to the right of this sign you will see a display that says "A camp in the Sage Brush"
Beyond that sign there is a line of about 5 trees visible in the distance. Go to those trees.
After walking through the gate, find a large willow tree with a Lilac bush that is north west of it.
You will find the Pony Express in a black pouch twist-tied to a branch in the center of the bush.
Please treat this one very carefully. It is too good to ruin.
Enjoy!
