This letterbox has been cleaned up and placed back in its hiding spot. A letterboxer informed me that they found this box on top of the bridge railing. It was lucky that they found it, and placed it back where it should have been. Please check to make sure the letterbox you find is hidden before leaving the area. Thanks and enjoy!

Description: An enjoyable easy walk, through the Mehraban Wetlands Park. Your dog can join you, so bring a leash for the walk, and bread to feed the ducks.

Directions: Take I-15 to 106th south. Exit going east on 106th south until you get to the light at Carnation Dr.(10th East). Turn right at the light, continue going down 10th east passing Alta High School on the left and Storm Mountain Park on the right. From Storm Mountain Park go to the third street on your right, Riparian Dr.(11815 S.). Turn right on this street. Go to the bottom of the hill. Then the road curves right and comes to the end where you turn left, (right is a dead end.) You will turn left in front of house # 872. A paved path to the wetlands borders their property on the west side. You can park on the street.

Clues: At the beginning of the paved path is a sign that says "Draper City Parks" with 5 rules listed. Read and follow the path around until you come to the sign "Purposeful Plants." Continue on the path leaving the pond, until you come to a bridge with rusty metal sides. As you walk over it you will come to a concrete strip where the path starts. Look to your left where the concrete strip ends. The fish is under a piece of bark and leaves.(You might want to bring some gloves to remove the leaves). After you Catch the fish in the wetlands, be sure and Release it back where you caught it, under the leaves and piece of bark, when no one is looking. Make sure it is completely hidden from sight.
Please let me know if it needs to be repaired or is missing. Thanks!
