Box Name is The Eagle
Placed March 2002
PA

Clue:

Right above a mid sized town in South
Eastern PA stands an oriental folly.
After following the race course
(Duryea Hill climb)
Investigate the stalwart structure
Now, proceed along the course I'm
Going to describe to you.


Foolish fellows find the folly's Roman features
- (gift shop level) and enumerate them.
Walking, driving, biking hiking off we go along the crest.
You must pass a little airfield - all in roundels on the right
Continue till you reach a most impressive structure
Towering over hill and dale.


Standing at the SW corner of the structure. With a compass sight 238.
Now descend the stairs, counting as you go.
Cross the road. Just the other side of the low wall you will see a drainage
Culvert.
(Large Cement box with 2 manholes)
Standing on the Box with the Tower at your back you should be on an azimuth
of 238
Now you are going to take how many steps? Add the number of - what were
those Roman features - to double the number of risers you just came down.
Walk to the Dark Barked Y shaped tree. Under the rocks on the east side and
Eagle makes its nest.



NOTE: Most of this is easy and drivable however after you go off trail you
should be careful of your footing. Be careful of the loose rocks.
