Hawk Ridge MN box not MIA...

FYI all, the Hawk Ridge box is alive and well. I was worried after
hearing that the box might be MIA and was delighted to find it right
where I put it with many fun stamps/comments in the book...Please put
the Hawk Ridge Letterbox back on the Minnesota clues page...thank you!

It's great to hear of another LB here in Minnesota! I look forward to
reading the clues and looking for the box. I just started doing this,
this past October and there are far too few boxes here in Minnesota!
I've done most of my hunting in Illinois on family visits. I'll be
placing my own letterboxes come Spring and I'll have a Dartmoor
exchange stamp to place in MN soon. I hope to get more people
involved in placing boxes here in Minnesota. Thanks! DebRocks

Hi - w've just returned from a visit to family in Minneapolis where we
introduced them to letterboxing - even gave them a starter kit for
Christmas. Hopefully, they'll help you get letterboxing ramped up in
MN - we searched for three together - and found two: the 45th Parallel
and the Grasshopper Chapel. (Think that we probably saw your stamp-in
at the Chapel - quite unique!) Told our family we expected exponential
growth by this summer.
Happy hunting and placing -
