BOX HAS BEEN REPLACED. Clues have been changed a little. Same image, different location.

If you find me, you deserve a hug!

This box is at White Ledges on Sunapee Mountain. The clues to Lake Solitude/White Ledges by Josh gives wonderful directions to this area via the Andrews Brook Trail from Mountain Road in Newbury. There are other ways to reach this area as well.

Clues:
From the tree with the sign saying "Andrews Brook Trail to Mt. Road (Newbury) 2miles" continue toward the summit of the mountain, bearing left at Jack and June Junction, until you reach White Ledges marked by a stone cairn. (Not sure is the cairn is still there. You'll know you are at the ledges by the big, beautiful, smooth, curved white rocks that you can walk out on.) Walk onto the ledges toward the view. There is a white seam at the far end of the rocks pointing to some scrub spruce trees. From these little trees, go south, to a crevice that could easily be hopped over. Stop before hopping over, look due West (to the right). Walk down the rock to the point where it exits into the forest. Stop there. Look left for a mossy rock (not too large) to the left of a spindly evergreen. Look under the front left edge of the rock.

Please be discrete since there may be other hikers around, and be sure that no part of it is visible when you finish.
