Yes, to both those questions. I've abused those ideas quite
thoroughly with an African Safari series you can see at
http://www.geocities.com/rscarpen/Lb/US/OR/AfricanSafari/

Each box is on a different trail and it would likely take most people
a week to nab ALL of the boxes in the series. To get them all without
any driving would likely take a month! I started planting them about
three years ago, and I'm still not done adding to the series! I
already have two stamps carved and ready to be placed for the series.

Stephanie,
I think the answers to your questions can be summed up by saying
that your letterboxes are yours to set up and do with as you wish.
The clues, where to post, or not, the stamp, box location and
whether to put them in a series or individually is strickly your
call. The one thing I would caution you about is that if you place
the clues for one or more boxes in one other box it is a real pain
in the rear when that clue holding box goes missing.
Some series letterboxes with their own clue sheets are Sierra
Sally's Mission Series, and we have several Outlaw series
letterboxes that Gwen & I, Sierra Sally, and Buzzard have put out.

Ah, you forget, There Are No Rules! One of the more enjoyable
series we have found involves letterboxes placed at various cultural
locations in the Central Valley. Lots of driving from place to
place, but a great introduction to the cultural influences within
the communities.
