These boxes are sort of special; they were planted by Camp Fire Lady and Pandora. But the funny thing about these boxes is that a close group of friends, without knowing it, all carved a picture of a humming bird and a flower around the same time, and without knowing it, all used basically the same image. So these 4 boxes are very similar artwork, but different interpretations.

Start at the Wild Life Care Center near the Audubon Sanctuary at Macleay Park in Portland Oregon.

Box #1 Carved by Pandora

Find the Pittock Sanctuary Nature Trail. From the sign go right over two bridges. Follow the Creek Trail heading right. Find the bench in memory of Marvin Lloyd Fisher. Take 22 steps back. Box #1 can be found under a fallen log next to a tall stump under branches and debris. When re-hiding this box please take care to conceal it well and to keep the hiding place as natural looking as possible.

Box #2 Carved by Campfire Lady

From Box #1 take the high road. At the first intersection you come to take a left. When you come across Woodpecker trail go left and stand under a mossy arched branch. 4 steps back and on your right you will find the letterbox under a log. Please take care to conceal it well and to keep the hiding place as natural looking as possible.

Box #3 Carved by Pandora

Back on Woodpecker Trail follow it until you hit the Jay trail. Take the Jay trail and head over the boardwalk and down the stairs. At the bottom of the stairs off to your right the letterbox is tucked in the V of fallen logs covered with bark. Please take care to conceal it well and to keep the hiding place as natural looking as possible.

Box #4 Carved by Maiden

Back on the boardwalk turn left and head up the Jay Trail. At the fork in the road take a right until you come to a grove of cedars on your left hand side. The cedar farthest back from the trail houses the letterbox. Please take care to conceal it well and to keep the hiding place as natural looking as possible.
