Difficulty: Very Easy...like 5minutes
This Stone Arch Bridge is Located on the south side of Route 9, in a roadside rest area about .1 miles west of the Antrim-Stoddard town line.
This twin arch structure was built without mortar solely by expert shaping of its archstones in the first half of the Nineteenth Century. This unique style of bridge construction was typically used in the Contooocook River Valley in the first half of the Nineteenth Century. Bridges like these are a significant part of our American architectural heritage.
Ok Now for the clues. So once you arrive at the Stone Arch Bridge make your way over to the middle of the two Arches of the Bridge. After taking a chance to admire the river go back the way you came about 20 steps to a shaggy Birch Tree on your right. Once at the tree go forward to the next railing pole after the tree. Now Make your way down to the Upstream side of the Bridge. About 2ft to the left of this same pole hidden behind a small rock in the bridge wall you will find your prize!
This can be a busy area so please be very discreet when finding this box!!! Rehide well also!!
**Bring Own Stamp Pad, I need to put one in the box next time we are in New Hampshire**
