**You will need your own ink.
*** This LB is in a tree. I am 5’3” and had no problem planting or retrieving it again afterwards.
Directions:
From Schoharie, take Route 30 into Middleburgh. At the light, take a left onto Main St. (Route 145). Take a left onto Huntersland Rd. Drive up the hill and the Cemetery entrance is on the left.
Clue:
Pull into the cemetery and take a left. Park next to Elizabeth and Lyman Seely just past the stone barrier on the right. As you get out of your vehicle, look to your left for Bouck. Go to the front of the stone and read a little about William C. Bouck. Return to the gravel road where you are parked and follow it until you get to Snyder on the left (reddish stone). Stand in front of Snyder and look up the hill and slightly left for Neville who is next to a tall rotted tree. Directly behind Neville is a big maple tree. Go to the back of the maple. Reach up between the two big branches into a crevice behind the left branch for Bouck. Please re-hide well.
Enjoy!
