This box was a combined effort. The box was created and the stamp was carved by Milagro. It was planted by Cuch & Flotilla the Hun.

Find the Lower Peninsula's Largest Waterfall. It lies East of the town of Onaway off route M-68. Go to the falls parking lot (not the campgrounds) and take the path to the falls. Bring your swim suit and after you enjoy the view, you can take a swim in the pool underneath the falls.

From the falls head UPSTREAM following the path that parallels the riverbed. Be careful on the rocky slope. You will enter a tunnel of trees and shortly encounter a gravel hill which takes you to a road. You may take the path over or under the bridge (under was more fun!) You want to cross the road but stay on the same side of the river. Following the rocky path along the very edge of the riverbed you will come to the remains of an old cement bridge. Stop and admire the stone wall leading up to where the bridge used to cross the river.

Find DA & DA 4 ever. Standing in front of this tree look left up the hill and find a clump of 5 or 6 conifers on top of the stone wall. (From where you are standing it looks like 5 but its actually 6 tree trunks) Go 16 paces toward this clump of trees and you will see a 2 trunked tree in front of the wall. Behind this tree look for the 3rd stone under the roots of the clump of conifers. Behind this stone will be your prize - the Tribal Salmon. Perhaps a symbol left by the tribes that used to fish these waters? Maybe, but bring your own ink pad for sure!

Please be discreet when retrieving this box and be sure to rehide well!
