Easy and short

Update: October 2013 - Box is cleaned up and in good condition!

Update: May 16,2009
This box is still active and has been adopted by PKBrock of the (HLRG) Historic Letterbox Restoration Group. It was originally planted by Psychomommy on Sept. 24, 2002. When I found this box it was so wet it dripped rusty water when I picked it up! The logbook was soaked and ruined but the stamp was salvageable. I replaced the logbook and baggies and left the original stamp and box.
Here are the original clues as written by Psychomommy:


From the Liberty Dam Overlook take the Switchback trail (white blazes). Cross the creek. As you continue on the trail the rocky path leads you to the lovely rock garden. At the top of the hill is a V tree. Look at this tree with the trail in front, take a 200 degree reading. There is the lovely rock garden. There you will find a tree with a narly foot. Watch out for its toenails.
