his is a Geocache-Letterbox Hybrid in Colt State Park. (GPS: N 41° 40.087 W 071° 18.021)
Start by parking at the large lot by picnic sites 1-7. Take the trail past the wooden gate, then take your first left. Follow this trail until you reach the tree marking the blue and yellow trails. You will pass through two stone walls on the way. Once at the tree, stay right on the Yellow trail. Cross another stone wall, stay left at a fork in the trail, then pass through one of the tallest stone walls I've seen.
Continue to follow this trail for a few minutes, you will pass a many-trunked tree at a small trail on the right. 70 steps after that game trail, stay left at the next main trail junction. Follow this trail for a few minutes, passing a dead-end trail on the left, to a trail junction surrounded by yet more stone walls.
Turn right onto the trail crossing one wall and between two others. Follow this trail down the hill and join with another trail (stay right). After 100 steps the trail will cross another wall. Turn around, you should see a small trail now on your right. About 100 feet down this trail is a man-made "Puddingstone" at another fork.
Keep right at the "Puddingstone" and follow this trail for 80 steps, passing a pile of birch logs. Turn right, then after 25 steps turn right again. After a few hundred feet this trail will end at a wall and a driveway. Just before you get to the end, look right for a dead tree that fell across yet another stone wall. The box is under this log.
