A Park named for an Indian Queen...to hide two boxes is where I've
been. On a crisp fall day, when the Rams prevail....These stamps
you'll find on The Beaver Lake Trail.

Just south of Richmond, and north of Petersburg, Pochahontas State
Park is located in Chesterfield, Virginia on State Rt. 655 (Beach
Road).

To reach the Beaver Lake Trail, go straight after entering the park,
and turn left into the Visitor Center parking lot. The trail is a 3-
mile loop with a few minor hills. Very kid and pet friendly. The
Beaver Lake Trail leaves the Visitor Center combined with the Ground
Pine Nature Trail. After descending west along the lakeshore for 1/4
mile, the Ground Pine path goes right and the Beaver Lake Trail
continues with the lakeshore. A short paved section begins at a
signpost to Spillway Trail. Follow that and the Spillway will be on
your left. Across the bridge, the Beaver Lake Trail bears sharp left
to the first overlook. Bear another left uphill. At about 1 1/2
miles, the trail reaches the site of an old gristmill.

Box #1

At the old mill site, before you cross the stream, locate a pair of
trees whose trunks are carved. Pass them by and follow the stream to
the right to a tree trunk that says "I Love Greg." Find the thin
tree growing our to a thick tree and from that point, scramble up the
hill to find a flat boulder nestled between a trio of trees. The
base of the boulder behind you to the right is where Box #1 will be
found. Stamp in and rehide carefully with leaves and branches to
keep box from view.

Return to the trail and soon you will cross a wooden boardwalk.

Box #2

On the boardwalk, When you have just 47 boards to the end, leave the
bridge to the left and find the tree with the hole in it facing the
stream. Hidden in that hole you'll find Box #2.

Happy Hiking and Hunting!
