Name of Letterbox: Illinois Canyon Letterbox
Closest town: Utica
County: LaSalle
State: Illinois
Planted by: Buffy & John
Date: 1-3-03
Because the western end of Starved Rock seems to get so much more attention
than the eastern half, we decided to hide a letterbox in one of our favorite
areas of the park. This is an easy, quiet hike everyone can enjoy. But,
there is a disclaimer with this area. Although we haven't seen the "mostly"
dry creek bed filled with water in a long time, I know that during a wet
season, it could be, so be careful not to get your feet wet! They have
constructed some stepping stones for the more daring souls. We left there
once with wet shoes, but as of 1-3-03, it was dry!
Clues:
Take a stroll to the end of the canyon and find the most distinctive "V"
which is only half of thee and search between the fallen three.
Have fun!
