How far would you walk? [OH]

From: Team Jedi (teamjedi@hotmail.com) | Date: 2002-11-30 20:09:11 UTC-05:00



How far would you walk to find 44 letterboxes. Our Team Placed 44
Letterboxes in 4.2 mile strech of trail. It's a Horse trail so
it's not flat BUT on the other hand it's not real hard, Just alot of ups and
downs and rocks. The kicker is; to get all of them, You have to walk back
the 4.2 miles as that is the closest way back to the car.

(8.4 total miles)or 44,740ft or if you walk from home plate at Riverfront
(Before it's torn down) to dead center field wall 112 times, You will have
walked it all (WOW)

We will upload the clues after we get them all written up and placed
on the site (alot of Writting) :O)

I just have to say that I found 4 today in a 3-hour stretch - come to
Virginia and plant 44 in a 4.2 mile stretch here please!

Good lord, that's a freaking lot of letterboxes! I'd walk 8.4 miles
in a heartbeat just to nab ONE letterbox. Actually, to tell you the
truth, I probably wouldn't bother trying to get ALL 44 in one
outing. It would drive me nuts having to stop every five minutes to
log another one in. In fact, it would probably take longer logging
into 44 letterboxes than it would take to hike the 4.2 miles and back!

But wow, 44 letterboxes. It took me SEVEN MONTHS to hide that many!

Of course, you'd probably have to hike a few hundred miles to nab my
first 44! =)

We checked on Scooby last week and he was safe and sound, but you're
not the first to have trouble finding him. I think I may have to
reword the clues some now that the trails are well hidden by leaves.
If you would like some additional hints, please feel free to email.
