Hopeless at Petticoat Hill in MA

We could not possibly find either the lost hat or the lost mitten. Too many
places matched the clues. We counted two stone walls crossing the trail and
that was the least of the problems. Most of the clues had to do with
boulders. However, the number of boulders was mind-boggling. What is a
table rock anyway? And most trees situated on a hill do fall in the same
general direction when it's their time to go. It was a nice place though.

Ahh...It was I who planted these boxes about a month ago...the clues are
like many other sets that I've encountered...deliberately ambiguous to
allow for more exploration of this area, and to make the search a little
harder! Did you try the hunt from both of the stone walls that you
saw? We didn't intend for the clues to be frustrating, just a little
harder. (i.e. not spelling out every step of the hunt)
Anyone else find these boxes?
