State #8 Pennsylvania
Box Name - The Shroomy Pez
carver - Lightnin' Bug
Time to Letterbox -
Location -
Clue - In Pennsylvania along US Route 1, there is the town that bills itself the Mushroom Capital of the World. Therein is a park named after the first real name of Potsie from happy days and the real last name of "Tricky Dick." From US 1, go South on the highway whose numerals are 1 plus nine squared. Turn left onto Leslie Road and park behind the baseball field.

A trail departs 70° from a post in the NE corner of the lot, which is behind left-center field. There are lots of interesting little signs describing these unique woods, and you would be served by reading them as you pass through. Take the boardwalk and cross the creek and go left when the trail forks.

From the signpost of the Beech Tree named after this town, go 290°, 5 paces to this tree. There is something here, but not what you seek. Your tree of the same species is at 335°, 7 paces from here. Find the SPOR facing US 1.
