state symbols letterboxes) Walk up Burma road a little way and you will
see a white trail on the right go past that and when you get to the top
of the hill you will see a yellow trail on the left.Take the yellow
trail and follow the dots,you will soon cross over a bridge and walk
along the banking.Then you will twist and turn through some pine
trees.You will come out to a opening near the pond their will be a
wooden bench over looking the water,we always see ducks here.Continue on
and you will go around a small field then back into the woods and soon
you'll be walking parallel with a stone wall.you will see green dots on
the trees but you sick with the yellow walking threw a bunch of skinny
trees,twisting and turning back near the pond,and then back into the
woods.soon you will be walking and the trail will bend to the right
along a stone wall,you will come to a good size tree shaped like a big Y
or a football goal post,you can't miss it because one of the branches is
hanging over the trail just above your head,and their is a few rocks
piled up on the right side of it.Standing even with that tree go 6 paces
down the trail and stop.Up the little hill behind a old rotten log in
the stone wall behind a stone door is the Delaware Letterbox.We put a
log standing up shaped like a Y just to the right of the box to make it
easy to find.Continue on and you will come to a blue trail keep with the
yellow to go to your car or go with the blue for some more great
hiking.If you stayed with the yellow you will soon come back out onto
Berma RD. take a right and follow down to your car.The NeeDeeps
