Archived - I went to check on this letterbox, but the woods where it was is now cut down. The runs have been re-routed, too. Very disappointing.


The forest where this letterbox hides is the site for two runs in the Sandy area. Run Girlfriend Run supports the American Heart Association every May, and Noah’s Quest (www.noahsquest.org) supports those who have lost a child or the hope of a child every June. Cherish every heartbeat.

Drive into Sandy, OR toward Mt. Hood
Turn left off of 26 into the Mt. Hood Athletic Club parking lot where the people of Sandy get their hearts pumping.
Park at the lower SE ventricle of the lot.
You’ll see some boulders leading you into the forest.
Follow the artery to the left and head downhill keeping on the artery parallel to the gym.
Cross the wood bridge
Stay left on the path on the narrower vein, do not leave this vein for the smaller capillary.
Next, you can take a shortcut or continue to the blackberry bramble and round the bend. Keep going and you’ll reach a switchback. (You’re still going the right way.)
Stop and take your pulse at the stump on the right - you’re almost there.
Up ahead on your left you’ll see a jagged stump that looks almost like a throne. (if you were to continue on the path, it continues around the back of it).
On the left side of the throne, you’ll find the letterbox. Congratulations!
