The music box Series #1
SING WHILE YOU MAY!!!


Status: 9/7/2008 -Box walked off!!!
I'll try to replace.


Hitchhiker friendly? Yes.
Wheelchair friendly? Park is, box is not.
Time: half hour in the field.



Welcome to my first letterbox!!
I'm a huge music geek (as well as a letterbox geek) and wanted to combine the two.


CLUES:

First, figure out what band's motto is the name of this box. Now go to the band's official home. Click on "Archives", then on "text From ...". Once on this page, you need to figure out the significance of the number 834. Once you have figured out the answer to what this number "shall create", type this into your search engine. You should now be able to locate the words to a song of the same name from a solo album by the lead singer. This is the key.

Start on the path just left of the street sign of the above address.
Walk to the flagpole. Just past the pole is an intersection. Go straight. Right at the Y. Take the next left.
See 2 benches ahead? Have a seat on the bench on the right. Take a look around. We saw Mallards, Geese and a Blue Heron!! Tons of wildlife around here.
Did you notice the path to the right? Follow this along the water's edge.
Pass the picnic table. You should end up connecting with the main trail. Take a compass reading of due south (magnetic) at the lamppost directly across the main trail from you. 90 steps later at a large tree take a compass reading of 210° (magnetic) to another lamppost.
Take a right on the main path. Start walking and start counting lampposts (not including the one you started at). At the fourth, look around for a grand ascension. Walk to it.
Up you go but not to far, take a left at the second landing. 55 paces down the path for support. stand on it and take a final reading of 320°.
25 paces and the prize is yours.

There's a special surprise for the first ?? people who find each box. Please take only one per party.

Please make sure you are sneaky when finding and replacing this box as this park is very popular. Thanks!!

Music Box 2 coming soon!!
