This is a pair of microboxes located on the Chillicothe campus of
Ohio University, in Ross County, Ohio.Placed by Salamander on 9-28-
02. Difficulty:Easy. CLUES: Begin at the campus library.At the rear
of the building, find a set of steps. Go down the steps and proceed
down the sidewalk in an easterly direction. Go all the way to the end
of the sidewalk to the point where it makes an abrupt right turn.At
this point, take a reading of 350 degrees and go 11 paces to the edge
of the woods (1 pace=2 steps). Going in the same direction, take 16
paces into the woods. You should see a Y-shaped fallen tree trunk
spanning a small gulley.The southernmost fork of this tree splits
into another "Y". This is the place you are interested in. To find
the second box,walk or drive to the upper parking area near the
gymnasium.From some parts of this parking lot, you will be able to
see a bright yellow tornado warning siren atop a utility pole. Go to
this pole. From here take a bearing of 315 degrees and walk 75
paces.Check out the base of the cottonwood tree, here you might find
a quilting bee!!
