Dingman's Falls, PA Letterboxes

Dingman's Falls is in the Delaware Water Gap area of the Poconos, and is
a nice falls that is accessible via a 1/2 mi long handi-cap accessible
ramp. It is run by the National Park Service and is open year round
(though you may need to hike a mile or so in if the access road has not
been plowed). There may be a small fee in the summer. When we were
there in the winter we ran into cross country skiers and some ice
climbers! The road to the falls is a stone throw south along Rt 209
from Rt 739.

This posting made me realize it would be nice to plant wheel chair
accessible boxes (bigger orienteering meets offer wheel chair routes).
Maybe list them under their state but also under a special page listing. I
imagine a friend or family member would have to come along to "dig" up the
box and put it back but they'd probably do that anyway...
