All four of these boxes are placed along State Route 101 that runs through the quaint town of Sunman, Indiana.
***Unfortunately it seems that most of these boxes have been reported missing and I haven't had time to check on them. Hopefully I can get some replacements out the next time I'm in the area***

Directions to Sunman:
I-74 exit 156, head South on 101 towards town approximately 2 miles.

Box #1 *** Reported Missing 5/24/2008 ***
As you are driving into town you will see a "Welcome to Sunman" sign on the right (near McPhersons). You will need to park in the lot right next to the sign. Standing in front of the sign if you look behind you there is an evergreen. What you seek is at it's base.

Box #2 *** Reported Missing 5/24/2008 ***
Continue on down 101 until you reach Sunman's Town Hall / Museum. Pull into the lot and park on the South side of the building in the very last spot closest to the building. You should see a lamp post and a cluster of shrubs along the sidewalk. When standing on the sidewalk facing the tree with the lamppost to your right and a bush at your feet; you will skip over the first bush and look in the second in the center of all the shrubs.

Box#3 *** Reported Missing 10/14/2008 ***
Further along 101 you will come to Sunman Community Park. It is easy to miss the sign so be sure to look for the Sunman Post Office, as the park is directly behind it. Find a place to park and make your way past the shelters to the basket ball court. Locate the light post on the left side of the court. From there face the playground and take 8 steps towards it. Turn 90* to your right and you will see a 4 trunked tree in the shape of a V. Your prize lays in it's base.

Box#4
As you drive along 101 out of Sunman be sure to stop at the B&G for a sweet treat or lunch. Further down the road is St.Paul's Church and cemetery. Park in the church parking lot and head to the cemetery behind the chapel. Find the headstone of two hugging trees and with your back to the Salimars take a reading of 320* further back and towards the tree line on the right. As you walk in that direction you will see the headstone of Theodore Groseklouse that has aquired a green tint over time. From there take a reading of 310* to the decaying stump approximately 10 feet away. What you seek is hidden within.

Please note that these are camoflauged containers (3"x5"). I'm not sure how busy these areas get, so please be discreet and rehide well. Enjoy your adventure in the jungle out there!
