Back to Letterboxing
Chuck & Molly's Placed: 1-3-05 Clues Revised 5-17-05 Round trip walk is under .75 of a mile The directions to this letterbox were written to encourage the use of a compass. Trail names, right or left, and landmarks are intentionally not listed in the clues. Use a compass. From the intersection of Rt. 195 and Rt. 89 in Mansfield Center, proceed North towards UConn. Take the second road that runs west. This road actually runs NW. There is parking on the northern side of this road right at the corner, park here. Walk towards the stop sign. Fifteen feet before the stop sign is the trail you take. Walk this trail until it comes to a T. At the T follow the trail at 160 degrees. You will come to a T again. Follow the trail at 240 degrees. When you come to an intersection with another trail, stop and follow the trail that goes off at 170 degrees. Walk until you come to another intersection. Take the trail that goes off at 290 degrees. When this trail is about to cross a stone wall, stop. Follow the stone wall off trail at 10 degrees. You will come to a stone wall that joins the one you are following, forming a T. From this intersection, take a reading of 200 degrees and walk in that direction 16 feet. Look on the East side of the stone wall and find a black rubber flap. Lift the flap to reveal a cavern. Inside the miniature cave is what you sought. After stamping in, go back the way you came. Before you set out, please read the waiver of responsibility and disclaimer. |
