The most underrated site in all the city, 100 Acres is a delight for art and nature lovers. The stamps in this series are inspired by the art installations, with Sisyphus being my all time favorite stamp I’ve carved to date.

- Flirty Bones -
Head to the Funky Bones.Starting at the top of the skull and walking away from the bones (westward), you will see a tree with a sign on your right and the ^ shaped bench on your left. Keep walking to find a small trail quickly leading to a broken tree being supported by a Y shaped tree at the fork of the trail. Take a left and immediately find a sign in front of a large tree called Nancy’s Oak. Find the box behind the tree, against the tree.
- Global Warming -
Head to Stratum Pier. Between the entrance of the pier and the viewing station is a concrete bench. Next to the bench, facing the viewing station, is a tree. Behind the tree is the box!
- Sisyphus -
Head towards the Park of Laments, tunnel entrance. Outside of the entrance is a yellow Jeppe Hein Bench Around the Lake piece with a large rock in the center of the bench. To the left of the bench is the black sign listing the piece’s description. Behind the sign is the box. (FYI The bottle has a small tab you have to press down and then twist the top to get it off.)
Please hide them all well!
- A note on the stamps, Flirty Bones was inspired by Funky Bones, as in what happens once Funky Bones finds love! Global Warming was inspired by the many pieces in the park speaking about environmental issues. And Sisyphus was inspired by the Bench it is hidden at with the large Boulder and the benches that resemble mountains, but the Park of the Laments, as I love the idea of living as Sisyphus did, not living lamenting, but rather embracing every bit of life, no matter the mundane or absurd.
Long-winded perhaps, but happy to share this with you!
Hike length: 0.5 miles
