Thank you so much.

Fun in the Cold Letterbox

Placed by J&A-Bear on 15 February 2003
Cascade, ID
Valley County

Directions: From State Route 55 at Cascade head
northeast on Warm Lake Road/FR22 for about 23 miles
until you come to Forest Road 474. We parked on the
right as the FR 474 was closed to vehicles this time
of year because of snow.

Description: An easy 4-mile hike round trip takes
about 2-3 hours on snowshoes. In the winter you can
cross-country ski, snowshoe, or use a snowmobile to
access this letterbox. In the summer you can actually
drive right to the trail and only walk a mile
roundtrip. There is Mollys Tubs Hot Springs on the
way and Mollys Hot Springs (unfortunately this one
has been neglected) near the letterbox. For more
detailed information read about the Hot Springs in
Hiking Hot Springs in the Pacific Northwest, a Falcon
Guide written by Evie Litton.

Clues: Start your trek at the intersection of Warm
Lake Rd and FR 474 and follow the Forest Road south
about 2 miles (.6 miles past Mollys Tubs) to your
first trail junction. Head west/right on the path
blocked to motor vehicles. Cross the bridge and meet
the tree standing 15 steps/8 paces in front of you.
Shoot for the arrowhead crack in the rocks at 320
degrees. Under the flat rock to its left is Fun in
the Cold letterbox.

Beware when reaching into dark places.
