From Suffield center, take Rte 168 West (Mountain Road) approx. 1.5 miles to the Police Station.  Take your next left into Bazin Bruce Park.  Follow the road behind the school to the parking lot by the baseball field.  You will see a sign on your right that says Welcome to Bruce Park.  Walk past this sign along the tree line separating the two soccer fields towards the woods.
The trail starts a little to the left of the blue and white lighted scoreboard.
 
Enter the path into the woods.  Follow the trail over a wooden bridge.  Bear left at the X-C sign.  Keep walking and when you come to a Y in the path bear to the right and follow the white arrows to the long trail.
 
When you come to a tree in the middle of the path marked with a yellow arrow sign pointing in both directions, stop here.
Go about 12 paces and on your right you will see a large spiny stump.  Go behind it and claim your prize.
 
When you are finished, hide the box well and continue on the path to the right, a short distance back to the playing fields.
