This is a letterbox, not a geocache. Please do not remove anything in trade and please leave no trinkets.
Bring your own ink--Prussian green is recommended--wink,wink.

From Santa Fe drive up winding, slow, scenic Hyde Park Road to Hyde Memorial State Park and pay the $5 fee. From the visitor's center continue on up the road and do not turn into the Campsite Loop. After about a mile or two, you'll see a wide space on the right of the road to park and a small walking bridge over Little Tesuque Creek. Cross that bridge and take the Piggyback Trail (sorry for trespassing on Arnold Ziffel's territory here). When you get to the next bridge, you've gone too far so go back a few steps and go over the creek bank--don't cross the creek to do this.

Clues: See what Robert Frost mended when he said, "Good fences make good neighbors." At its Confederate end, find a bed pillow-sized rock of Confederate hue up by the pine tree. Under there.

Please don't let the campers see you pull out the letterbox or rehide it. Get out your camera and take pictures of the wildflowers. Please rehide exactly where you found it and do not leave any plastic showing. Throw some pine cones and needles on top so it blends naturally.

Happy hunting.
