Start at Hickory Run Park Office.
Get a map.
Drive till you reach the sign for the Day Use Area. Make a left. At the first fork in the road make a left. At the next fork make a left, there will be a sign for Camp Daddy Allen. Drive down this road, you will pass the camp entrance on your left. You will see a pond on your left and a dam, this is the Saylorsville Dam. Cross the bridge and park.
Now walk back to the bridge. To the left of the bridge walk down to the edge of the creek. Look down over the edge, you will see a ledge, step down onto ledge and turn around and look at rock wall.
See the large rock that is red due to iron content?(it looks like it is rusting) wedged under the far right corner and disguised with rocks is Catch-n-Release.
Please use discretion, occassionally in the winter the water may be high. Mostly watch out for tourists and kids from the camps located nearby.
After finding the box you can continue down one of the prettiest lanes in PA it will take you back to the Park Office-though if you haven't visited Boulder Field go back to the last fork and make a left onto Boulder Field Road it's a must see.
Note: Stamp went missing, Log book full, replaced both August 9, 2014. An awesome 7 Years so far, lets keep it going! Thanks and have fun, The Nature Lady
Hike length: 0.1 miles
