Lockwench took me and Knitica to Foxes Falls, and encouraged me to create a letterbox. I hope you enjoy this little fox in a box. Although this is not a difficult hike, you will want to wear non-slip shoes, and be prepared for a little bit of scrambling over rocks.

From Ilion, take route 51 south, out of town. Turn left on Spinnerville Road, and then turn right on Elizabethtown Road. Follow the road around to the right, and park at the dead end. Climb under the fence, and follow the path until you come to a stone bridge and a fork in the path. Turn right and follow the path until you start to hear more water than the stream you have been following. There will be a low stone structure in the stream to your left, and you will take the right fork of the path.

Once you see the falls, clamber up to the area to the right of the falls and follow the rock wall away from the falls. You will pass a small sapling growing out of the rocks. Just past this tree is a shaggy birch tree, also growing from the rock wall. Face the tree and about two feet up there will be a crevice in the wall of rock. Don't worry I'm not asking you to jam your hand into the scary spider habitat. You should find a small fox hiding behind a rock in the front of the crevice.

Now that you've found your fox, you are free to explore the falls.

Let me know how my little fox is doing!
