Hi boxers:
With our Dartmoor trip only 7 weeks away from this Friday, a question
has come up from one of our trip members. [There are 13 of us and we
are being called the LBNA Baker's Dozen. Rustypuff is designing a
common stamp that we will use to speed up the stamping in process!]
The question is: Can we count our Dartmoor finds in our normal F
count? I assume that with letterboxes all over the world, that a box
is a box, as long as it fits the understood criteria - clues, stamp,
logbook.
So - what say you, letterboxing sages?
Have fun and just get out there & box!!!

If they're boxes with stamps and journals I say count them. A box by any other name...

I would think you'd count it as a regular find unless you want to be
show-offy & then you could come up with a special category:
Px Fx DARTMOOR(neener neener neener)x
But that's just my opinion.

What I've seen of those Dartmoor clues - they are complicated - or
maybe I was lost in the translation -- SO I THINK each box should
count as 1-1/2 Finds.

The Dartmoor 100 Club specifically says that you can only count boxes on
Dartmoor towards your count of found Dartmoor boxes (which is important to
them because you must have found 100 before you can get their updated clue
catalogues).
However, we North Americans tend to have a more global view of
letterboxing, and when I get to Dartmoor myself, I'll probably be inclined
to count those boxes in my total F count, barring any great upheaval of
opinions to the contrary here....

Not a sage, and envious beyond belief that you all are going on this trip
I say of course you count them!

I would think to count it as an F. However, I will be putting my Dartmoor
stuff under a separate ledger: DF and DX.

Hey dude, since I live so far away and won't be able to make the trip
to Dartmoor any time soon, do you think you could take my log book
with you and get me some stamps from the moors?
