To all Lber's , Our dog "Bud" has been sleeping quite a bit lately . He
used most of his energy planting the "Boulder rock" letterbox last
Sunday.

Placed by J&G&"Bud" on April 20,2003 @ 2pm.

Location: Northeast Catskills of NY - Green County

Closest Town: Haines Falls

There are many ways to get to this Lb. You can start at the Schutt road
parking area which is on the outside of the park and hike the 2 or so
miles following the blue and red markers which lead to the LB.
or
The Scenic way is to walk through the park to the Catskill Mountain House
Site and hike up from this side of South Mountain to the LB. Views all
over the place from this approach.

This picture and this clue should make it easy to find this LB.

"On the top where no body should go is 1912 etched in stone,
If you push the LB too much it will fall and be out of touch,
So follow the channel in the shadow and you will gain
Another map showing an "x" where there is a downed plane"

P.S.
When we took the Winter Picture , Bud stayed warm at home and besides we
had x county skis.

Signed on to the new wesgarrison site without a hitch - but need more
time to find out how it works. Guess I'll have to read the directions
an follow the faqs!

In the meantime, Thanks WebMasters for your greatly appreciated help. May
the Sun follow your ways.
