The box is located in Trillium Park Olympia.

History on Trillium Park:
This scenic, forested ravine was protected by the Governor Stevens Neighborhood Association and the landowners In the
late 1980's and early 1990's. Property owners donated their land to preserve the beautiful open space for people of the community's enjoyment.


Directions:
*Take I-5 and get off at exit 102.
*Go East on Trosper Rd. to Capital Blvd.
*Turn to go North (left) on Capital Blvd.
*You will drive through a few stoplights about a mile or more.
*Then you will reach a weird looking intersection that has fork turns.
*Turn (it's sort of half turn) to go East (right) on Carlyon Ave.
*About 3 blocks down there is a Street called Hoadley St.
*Turn to go North (left) on that street.
*Make sure you go slow there are always cars parked here and the street is very narrow.
*Stop as you reach the end of the street where it is a merge/left that turns into Governer Stevens St.
*There is a sign that says Trillium Park, just stop right in front of it and get out of your car.
*Walk up to the dirt path right next to the sign.
*Look down onto with dirt path with wooden steps imbedded into the hill.
*Go down steps a bit and enjoy the scenery of the beautiful Park.
*Now stop shortly after at the spot where there are two trees directly next to each other on either side of the path. (only like a 45 sec. walk from the top)
*Turn around and look back up the steps that you just walked down.
*Do you see a tree up there that is really close to the path and branches off near the bottom into two seperate trees? You can't miss it.
*Walk directly up to it. There is a small crevice at the base of the tree before the split into two branches and if you move the leaves you will find Sunny Point!
*Please remember to cover it again because it is not very far burried.


I decided to call this letterbox Sunny Point because the box is pretty Sun Yellow and the Sun reaches just as far into the woods as that tree is. I hope you enjoyed finding Sunny Point!
