New Jackson Co, Ohio box - Summer Antics

Summer Antics

Difficulty: Easy
Terrain: Moderate (It's in a hilly cemetery.)

This little fellow is hiding in a microbox (please bring a stamp pad
and pencil) in Fairmont Cemetery in Jackson, Ohio. The cemetery is
located off East Broadway in Jackson. To get there, take the
Broadway exit off US Route #35 and turn west (toward town) on
Broadway. The cemetery entrance is about mile on your right.

To find "Summer Antics", make your way to the highest point in the
cemetery. There you will find a crumbling monument with a large
plaque containing the Gettysburg Address. From behind this monument,
take a bearing of 110 and proceed about 33 paces to large, recently
cut, stump. (1 pace = 2 steps but because of the terrain and the
need to be respectful of the graves the pace count is approximate at
best here) From the stump, take a bearing of 155 and go about 64
paces to a cedar tree. If you look closely about 6 feet off the
ground, you should find our little friend waiting for you!

If you find him, please email and let us know how he's doing at:
