To find this box, you'll need to travel back in time to the Village of Waterford in the early twentieth century. Your journey begins at Fish Hatchery Park, 4490 Hatchery Road.

As you start to climb uphill, you may find yourself wanting to stop for ice cream. Hmm, that building looks a lot like one in Greenfield Village. Continue on the road, circling behind the village. There's the water tower & the station. I wonder where the rest of the train is? Keep going until you run out of road. Park, cross the river & stroll the boardwalk along the water's edge for a little ways. Look, across the lake is the railroad bridge. Doesn't look like it passes by our station, though. Oh, there's the train, over your right shoulder. Looks kind of small, wooden you say? Exit the boardwalk to the right & take the sidewalk to the pavilion closest to the road. From the northeast corner of the pavilion, take about 12 paces (1 pace=2 steps)at 45-ish degrees. make a soft left, take a few steps & make a hard left. With wood on your left & water on your right, proceed CAREFULLY along this narrow strip of land. Beginning with the corner, count 7 support posts. At the 7th, reach up under the deck. The box is setting on top of the corresponding beam. Please replace carefully when done. Stealth may be necessary here, you're in view of the houses across the lake. This is also a semi-popular spot for people to fish from the boardwalk. Please reseal all bags & box carefully.
