Change to Panic Letterbox at Lantern Hill

From: (trishkri@yahoo.com) | Date: 2001-03-10 22:53:08 UTC
Due to the additional snow that has fallen this week the route up to
the "Panic" letterbox should be avoided. It is best to wait a couple
of weeks for the warm weather to melt all the snow and ice to make
sure that you can safely enjoy this beautiful but difficult scramble.

Regards,

Jay,
Please substitute the following paragraph for the existing one
in "Panic"

Difficulty: Clues easy, hike very difficult. This is a scramble of
medium difficulty that can be attempted by most adults that are sure
footed. It should only be done in dry conditions. Rain, snow and
ice could put the hiker in a dangerous situation. It offers a nice
challenge and rewarding views. It is not a place for children and
pets. Note, this box was planted in winter and may have to be hidden
better when the snow and ice are gone.
