This is in a series of 28 boxes hidden in 14 states.


Difficulty: medium-hilly, rocky trail
Distance to Box: .5 mile

Go to Bull Shoals-White River State Park. Find the visitor's center and get a map of the Big Bluff Trail. Or you can simply pass the center and continue on that road until it ends at the sign for the Big Bluff Trail. Walk on the trail and find the Lost Texan #7, then proceed left at the green info. sign up the trail. When you reach a bench near the top of the bluff, rest your tired doggies and enjoy the beautiful view of the White River. Be careful of the dropoff!! Now, face the bench and stand at the right end. Proceed 16 steps at a bearing of 167 degrees up the hill. Then proceed 16 steps at a bearing of 108 degrees. These will probably be small steps as I didn't want to tumble down the hill. Look for a fallen log. The box is hidden on the uphill side of the log under a rock in the middle of the log. Please reseal well and Have Fun!

(If you like to trout fish, try the orange and yellow Power Bait in the river-it worked for us! However, watch out for rising waters when they generate power through the dam-it rises quick!)
