Easy hike; 1 hour from parking lot to box.
NOTE (03/28/07): This box has unfortunately disappeared. But, don't panic--there are plenty of other boxes to find! We'll be leaving this clue up on the website as a permanent memorial to a bygone era.


"I manoeuvered my antagonists from their advantageous ground into as disadvantageous a one...without losing a single gun, a single color, or sacrificing a single batallion." Sir Henry Clinton and Samuel Adams agreed with this man that his decision was the correct one, yet he was found guilty.

Go to the place where this man ordered his troops to retreat.

Start between the flagpoles. Take the path that borders the woods at 290 degrees.

When you come to a fork in the road, where the gravel path goes left and the tire tracks go right, take the option at 280 degrees.

When you can make a right, make it. Then, take the next left. Then, choose blue.

You'll come to a clearing. Standing at the brown metal post, walk to the rocky bridge at 317 degrees. Then, standing in the center of the bridge, walk 8 paces due east; you'll see a tree on your left. The box is under some branches next to the tree; please replace them carefully!

To get out of the woods, stand at the pole and take the trail to the south. Keep going straight and stay on the main trail; then go straight into the woods; the path will lead you home.



And now, the fine print: Waiver of Responsibility and Disclaimer: Letterboxing, like any outdoor sport, carries the risk of various and unforseen hazards (including, but not limited to, deer ticks and poison ivy). The Perfect Circle Letterboxing Guild support a policy of not knowingly placing letterboxes in areas that will create undue risk to the letterbox hunter. However, as conditions may vary, it is the responsibility of the letterbox searcher to become thoroughly familiar with the conditions in the area to be searched, to adequately prepare for those conditions, and to conduct oneself safely and responsibly with respect to those conditions and with respect to his or her personal abilities and limitations. The Perfect Circle Letterboxing Guild and the individual letterbox sponsors assume no liability for events which may occur related directly or indirectly to one's searching for a letterbox. Do not let children hunt for letterboxes unsupervised. By reading and utilizing this letterbox clue, you acknowledge the above conditions, and accept responsibility for your own actions, and agree to hold non-liable the clubs and clue writers/box sponsors, and further, agree to provide this disclaimer to any person with whom you share these letterbox clues.
