Difficulty: Clues easy, walk moderate
Distance: about 0.2 mile one way
Stamp hand-carved
Status: alive and well on April 20, 2023
This box is in the Coconino National Forest near I-17. From I-17 take exit 298 and drive east on Forest Road 618 for about 1.3 miles. Park in the large pullout on the right (southwest) side of the road just before the Red Tank Draw bridge.
From the pullout you will see an old dirt 4-wheel road going southwest up the side of the hill. Walk up this road. You will soon pass an outcrop of red rock jutting out from right edge of the road/trail.
From the beginning of the road cut, continue forward on the road for about 240 more steps to where the road appears to end. Continue a few more steps ahead, through some bushes to a very, very small shallow dry stream/drainage channel.
While standing in the small channel sight at 340 degrees (from mag. north) up hill, walk for about 100 steps to a large lone Juniper Tree. You will be passing a smaller juniper, about half way, keeping it to your left.
The box is on the northeast side of this tree under rocks. Be very alert for snakes and scorpions!
<B>Please please be sure the contents are double ziplocked when you put them back in the box (i.e. the stamp is in a ziploc, the book is in a ziploc, and the two are in the larger ziploc bag) and put all of it INSIDE the box. <U>Please rehide the box well under the rocks and cover it with some plant debris so that it can not be seen from any direction.__**
Enjoy the view of the Red Tank Draw area.
I will not be able to check on this box very often; so, please let me know if you find it, or if it is missing so that I can delete the clues:
