What's the deal with hitchhikers?

From: (RicSiro@aol.com) | Date: 2005-04-07 18:11:24 UTC-04:00
Sorry everyone, I'm learning the rules of this LB'ing...
Could someone please explain what a hitchhiker box is? We think we found one
this week while searching for another box (which we did find), are we suppose
to leave it there?
Thank you greatly~

Hello Mommachick,
Welcome to the addiction. While there are a number of letterboxers
that will probably post an answer here on this list, I would rather
refer you to a number of great sites where you can find your
answers. I tend to be from the point of view that will "teach you to
fish, rather than give you fish"

Here are a few sites you can check out and find most of the answers
to your questions.

Silent Doug's site:

Doug probably has the best info site on Hitch hikers

Ryan has a link set up "Code of Conduct" that is really good for all
boxers to read
