There are no letterboxes in my county and our family wants to change that. We have several planned boxes to plant. The question: do purists mind of a stamp is hand-cut rather than hand carved? ...

I am preparing my first box for placement. What is your opinion for the best letterbox container? Ammo boxes seem very sturdy and waterproof, but are they mostly used for geocaching? I've found...

I agree with Ted's statement. I don't have a problem with ATVs when they stay where it is legal. I believe most of the "problem" ATVers are kids whose parents bought them then don't pay attention...

I was wondering about how much impact that ATV's have had in your area. I recently went to check on one of my Lb.s and there were a couple of areas that there have been some major eroasion...

I was thinking of something oldfashion with letterboxing. I was thinking of setting up a letterbox that you would have to send a postcard with your stamp on it to a post office box. You would...

Having trouble accessing LBNA tonight. Luckily I was able to view the cached version of the clues I wanted on Atlas Quest!! How long is this going to last this time??? -Amanda from Seattle

Ok, so letterboxing really is not about the count for me...it's about getting out and seeing new places and finding pretty stamps. HOWEVER. Since there's been so much discussion about F-counts...

I can see using the F1 in order to keep a box out of general googles, but not really as a restrictive thing. If it's widely known that if you log one find, you get access, I don't see that as a...

I was in Colorado and the friend I was visiting wanted to go to Pikes Peak. She had never been letterboxing and I figured there was proabbly a good chance there was one in the area. I called up my...

I certainly hope everyone finds something "for them" in 'boxing, and so, I've planted letterboxes on both long hikes and short walks. One of my boxes (retired after four years) was...

I would prefer that my "finds" actually indicated some effort. I love hiking, and would prefer more hiking boxes. A series labeled "3 miles" will get very few visitors, and that is a pity. Some...
