State: AZ
County: Maricopa
Nearest City: Scottsdale
Number of Boxes: 1
Clues
Terrain: loose rock, good shoes or boots are a must due to the slipping hazard
Distance of walk: 1.5 mi rt
Elevation: 200’ total
Wheel chair friendly: no
Pen colors: Gray, Brown, light green, light blue, Dark yellow, purple.
Introduction:
Runners of the road vary greatly in appearance, they are adorned with a variety of colors and patterns. Some even have plumage. Some are very fast and other just plod along. But the master of the road you will find below.
Getting you close:
Drive to Papago Park, from N Galvin Parkway go West on Papago Park Dr and park.
The Box:
From the SW post of Elliot Ramada look for the Saguaro at 250 deg. Hike cross country about 340 yds. Once there, put the Saguaro and the closest butte to your back, walk ~60yds @ 276 Deg. Of the 2 boulders, look under the southern one who’s side faces the butte. (Keep an eye out for bikers, hikers & runners for they appear quickly) Be careful, something maybe living next to the box. Who knows what might hatch from the many white dimpled eggs you will see strewn about. If you don’t see any, you are either in the wrong place or they have all hatched!!!
Please re-hide well, scatter some natural ground debris over the hiding spot.
Hope you enjoyed the hunt. Since we don’t live in the area we can’t check on this box. We would appreciate an update on the boxes condition. Thank you.
