Out & About in Rhode Island and Connecticut

I concur with the note, I was unable to locate the second box, and therefore it may very well be missing. The firetower box is alive and well.
 
Tribal Nation
Two boxes in good shape, great hike, nice climb, totally unexpected sheer cliffs. By the way I checked out the PANIC route and decided that I am too old for such risks. :-}
 
Fowler-Grindstone
All three boxes have been visited by a lot of boxers. FYI, the pink blazes on the near side of the brook seem to have disappeared. Listen for the sound of the brook when you reach the old logging road and bushwhack over to the stone dam. The blazes are still on the far side. I also loved parking in that guys driveway!
 
Yawbux Valley
Everything is right where it's supposed to be.
 
Blue Jay at Blue Pond
The blue jay is singing up a storm.
 
Canonchet's Waters
This has to be rated a premier location. We would have hiked back the same way after the second box, but YIMS saw one too many snake. The forest ranger found us stamping in and lo and behold, he knew all about letterboxing, Dartmoor and everything.
 
Fast Track To Your Degree
Quickest multi letter degrees I ever got. Great gardens, and at this time of year no students to be wary of while stamping in.
 
Fast approaching 200 found.

By the way YIMS (You Inspire My Spirit) needs three more for 100.
