Take 123 West out of the town of Hancock, traveling approximately 5 miles. Take right turn onto Davenport Road (should see boat launch signs). Follow Davenport Road until it merges with Willard Pond Road, continue straight. You will come to a parking lot on your left prior to reaching Willard Pond itself.
(If coming from west of Hancock on Rt 123, take the left turn onto Willard Pond Road and follow as above).
If hiking to the Letterbox, park your car when you reach the parking lot on your left. If boating, take your car to pond to launch your boat, and return your vehicle to the parking lot.
For 1's: From the parking lot, head toward the pond. Just after the house on your left you will reach the trailhead for Tudor Trail, which is also on your left. Enjoy your hike on Tudor Trail, which is marked by yellow rectangle blazes and takes approximately 35 to 40 minutes. The trail ends at a pine point and a small, pleasant beach where you can look back across the pond to where your hike began.
For 2's: Paddle your boat along the western shore nearly to the northwest end of the pond. You will come to a small and pleasant beach that sits on a point and faces the beach where you launched your boat. Park your boat at this beach.
Clues:
>Standing on the beach, facing the water, turn 180 degrees and walk through the large, split boulder.
>Continue straight to the two-trunk pine. Turn 90 degrees left and take 15 paces ending directly in front of a yellow-blazed tree.
>Just beyond the tree, you will see a path with a boulder on each side (hikers will have come this way on your journey to the beach). Stand between the boulders, and then take 9 paces to another tree marked with a yellow blaze.
> From this tree look 20 degrees northeast to a boulder outcropping. Walk 19 paces toward the outcropping.
> On your left will be another large boulder. Finish your search as it began by focusing your attention on where the rock has been split.
Clues, like bark, can only go so deep. To find what you are looking for you must go deeper than both the clues and the bark of a tree
