STAMP MISSING - BOX REMOVED

Virginia Tech Duck Pond Letter Box
Blacksburg, VA 24060

From the Virginia Tech Duck Pond –

- Go to the large “The Duck Pond – Blacksburg, VA” sign and count the number of pictures on the placard.
- Find the Gazebo at the water’s edge, and count the number of islands in the pond.
- Standing in the entrance to the Gazebo, facing the water, turn left.
- Follow the water’s edge past the same number of “weeping” style trees as there are pictures on the sign and the same number of benches as there are islands.
- This should bring you to the pond’s outlet – a concrete walled spillway.
- The box is tucked under the base of another “weeping” style tree, located just downstream of the pond’s outlet. There is a hollow under the tree’s base, on the creek-side, where you will find the box.
