This is either a joke, which is possible, or THE most pompous message I
have ever seen. The clues are clear, have a nice "mystery landmark" and an
e-mail address right on the site if this guy wants to complain. I think I
am heading to Nashua to go find it and, maybe, while I'm there, see if we
can find someone to replace this guy on "the Committee"; or maybe we can
"work with them" to improve their manners (and spelling).

Sorry; had to say it.

I guess I have to agree. I looked at the clues and thought they
looked different and would make quite an interesting challenge.
Looks like a clever use of landmarks and presents a bit of a map
reading task for some.

The box owners information appear there clearly. I might be nice if
one of the web masters drops them a note. The box owner can then
visit with the committee and explain what his goals are by setting
this box ( intro for newbies, a step up in challenge from the usual
trail right trail left clues?)

Perhaps the victim here is the committee and someone with an agenda
against them?

The Mine Falls Park Letterbox is clever. I've visited it.
The stamp is wonderful!
I do know the park is scheduled for major work. They are planning to change
some of the water pathways for a fish ladder. The box must have been "found"
accidentally.
Too bad to lose this nice LB. I hope it can be relocated.
