Or continue straight for my NH.BOX.you will see alot of little overlook spots on your left,over looking Ross' Pond keep going until you come to a big overlook with blue and red paint on the rocks from some local artist,enjoy the view.When you're done looking at the view continue on the trail a little more until you come to the biggest overlook on the left,again enjoy the view.After you take a quick break keep going down the trail and you'll pass by a thigh high rock in the trail,keep going a little more and you will come to a Y the trail will drop off to the left,plus it will keep on going straight(STOP) when you come to this Y.
You will see a tree in the shape of a V on your right,go to this tree and take a reading of 225 degrees,you will see three rocks,the box is behind the middle rock covered with sticks and a flat rock.Please rehide well,this is the second NH box I put up here.Replanted 10-5-03.The NeeDeeps
