This letterbox was part of the 2011 GO and Explore Your World! program, and was available from June 1, 2011 - September 5, 2011. Stay tuned for the 5th annual GO York program, to start in June 2012. Information about the program may be found at www.goyork.org.

The GO and Explore Your World! program uses checkpoints - wooden posts with engraved plates attached to them - instead of traditional letterboxes and stamps. Please carefully rub an impression from the engraved plate into your Passport (program guide), available at any York County Library.

This letterbox is located in P. Joseph Raab County Park, and is rated "hard" by GO York standards.

- Start at the Hoff Road parking lot.
- Follow trail #1 through the woods and cross over the field to the woods on the left side.
- Follow the forest on the left side of the field staying on trail #1.
- Just past the almost horizontal growing black cherry tree with the top cut off, trail #1 turns to the left.
- NOTE: This part is confusing as trail #1 splits. Turn left on trail #1 and follow it uphill. Do not turn right and continue downhill!
- After you turn, look for the standing dead tree covered with the hairy poison ivy vine on the right side of trail #1.
- Stop at the fallen tree across trail #1 and look for insect holes.
- Continue on trail #1 to the checkpoint located near at the historic mining trench.
- After finding the checkpoint, head down the hill and follow trail #2 back to the field.
- Turn right at the field onto trail #1 and follow it back to the parking lot.
