DIRECTIONS:
About 40 miles from the town of Ellsworth Maine, East on RT 1, you'll come upon an oasis of civilization. This is the town of Columbia, population 450, and several moose. There is a cluster of stores, known as The Four Corners Shopping Plaza. You'll see an Ace Hardware, a Citgo station, a Machias Savings Bank, and various other little businesses. Directly after the Ace Hardware, turn left and drive north. About 3 miles up, you'll come to another 4 way intersection that looks more like a driveway than a road...drive on through. At the 4 mile mark, you'll come to the top of a hill. Continue driving down the hill and bear right and you'll come to a small bridge. Park on the far side of the bridge,on the right, underneath the street sign that bears the names Saco Rd and
Farnsworth Rd.
CLUES:
You'll find a little path right off the pavement,heading down toward the river. At the trail's end (about 50 paces), look to the left to see a boulder and two trees. Our Blueberry Hill letterbox is snug under some rocks at the base.
It's a fairly easy walk, tho not handicapped accessible. And you'll get to see some mighty spectacular country that you'd probably otherwise miss.
This is the first box we've planted. We hope you enjoy the hunt.
