(7/2008: Sorry we're no longer to check or maintain our boxes. Check the latest status on LBNA prior to hunting it.)
A Season For Everything
Ironwood, Michigan, Gogebic County
If you’re familiar with the song that shares a title similar to this box (and the name of the group that sang it), you should be able to identify the wildlife subject of the stamp.
The box is placed at a scenic turnout on Lake Superior at Little Girl’s Point County Park. You will find a beach of multicolored smooth stones of all shapes – very cool.
Compass required: No
Difficulty: driveby
Here is map that will be useful in finding the park:
http://hunts-upguide.com/ironwood_map.html
Directions to Little Girl’s Point County Park:
- From Ironwood, go North on Hwy 505/Lake Superior Road
- If you view the map (see above), you’ll notice that Hwy 505 makes several 90 degree turns and eventually heads gradually NW. Stay on Hwy 505 until you see Lake Superior – you’ll be at Little Girl’s Point Park. (One web site says this is 8 miles from Ironwood, but we forgot to check the odometer ourselves.)
- Don’t go into the main entrance of the park. Instead, look for the parking lot that overlooks the Lake, this is where you want to park. (As a point of reference, there are camping spots across the street from this parking lot.)
Directions to box:
- Park in the parking lot, and walk over to the permit/day use fee box.
- Face west, and walk alongside the guardrail on your right.
- When you reach the first gap in the guardrail, go down the steps toward the lake. Stop at the bottom of the steps.
- Turn to your left (West), and walk 7 or 8 steps.
- Turn to your left again (you’ll be facing up the hill toward the road). On the brush-covered ledge in front of you, there is a large rose-colored rock. The box is in a hollow underneath this rock.
- Be sure to replace without crushing the box!
