Hi Ginger,

I did a tour of my letterboxes today and discovered that the trails
at Hunters Falls had been rerouted. The letterbox is still there and
intact in its original location - but Target 1 and the orange rebar
have been moved to a secondary trail. I have posted new clues -
namely to follow the trail over the bridge and through the woods, but
where the trail forks, keep to the water side trail to the left.
There is a boulder and a freshly cut tree at the fork. Count 15
paces from the fork along the water side trail to a pine sapling.
The ledge rock hiding spot is at the base of the pine sapling.
Target 1 and the orange rebar have been moved to the right fork of
the trail and are visible from the fork looking inland, but are no
longer relevant to the clues. I decided to keep the letterbox in its
original location because the view from there is prettier.

I try to do a tour of my letterboxes every few months to make sure
they are still there. I know my own keen sense of frustration to
spend a day letterboxing only to discover that the box(es) is long
gone and not reported missing!

I discovered your post *after* I had made my tour and posted my
findings. I regret your fruitless search on this one!

Hi!

No problem! I had fun going to Tangled Woods and Pepperpoint that day. Ran
out of time to do the one at Farmer Harveys, so will go back and do Hunter
Falls and that one!

Cheers!

Ginger
