I've just planted my 3rd box. It is about an hour from the Crabtree
location, about 4 hours from the Kilmer location.

You will get wet; please take along a dry hand towel in a waterproof bag so
you don't smear the logbook or your stamp. Wear foot protection; river
bottom is rocky and uneven. PFD's for youngsters a MUST! If you're
short, a taller friend whose shoulders you can rely on may come in handy!
Friendly canine alarms on premises. NOTE: If you can't see the rocks that
go across the river, the water is too high and fast - do not attempt to
retrieve the letterbox.

To find this box
You must heed
A number of warnings
Of water and speed.

About the speed -
Take caution, you!
Curves and trees
Obstruct the view.

Drivers crazy, drivers rude
Drivers just impatient with you;
Let them by, they don't know
You're looking for the place to go.

Use the Hog to turn around
If first time you miss this ground.

In the Higgins
The trick, you see
Is North or South?
Which shall it be?

The Miller's Wife
(of fine old folks)
Waits for you
Near by the Volks.

Park on gravel,
Have no fear
For a Letterboxer
Homesteads here!

Descend the steps
To tree on right;
Ponder then
This ancient site.

Where was the dam?
Where'd be the mill?
What hap'd to them?
What made them still?

Unwrap your compass
At this place
Find Two Oh Oh
On its face.

Where the rocks
Seem to straddle
Here's your challenge:
Wade or paddle?

Knee-deep, waist deep
To the middle
Cross, however
Then this riddle:

Stay in water
Look up high
In a rock
There is an eye

Deep the socket
Perfectly round
Inside, the Miller's Wife
You've Found!

Through the dam
And up you'll see
Footholds firm
Bring her to thee.
