The answers to the questions in the clues for this webbox are located in Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in south-central Colorado. Letterboxes are not allowed to be physically placed in national parks and national monuments administered by the U. S. National Park Service. So, I have created this webbox. You must actually visit the area of the clues; however, you need to go to the Web to obtain your finders stamp and sign the log book.

Enter Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve which is north of U. S. Highway 160 and at the end of State Highway 150. Go to the visitor center and park there.

Start walking on the Sand Sheet Loop Trail which starts in front of the visitor center. At the beginning of the trail is a colorful interpretive sign (with a map of the trail on it) titled “SAND SHEET LOOP TRAIL”. In the second paragraph (starts with the words “Encircling the dunefield”), in the second line, what is the seventh word ______?

Continue walking on the trail and look for a colorful interpretive sign titled “A BARREN DESERT?”. In the middle paragraph (starts with the words “The answer is”), in the third line, what is the third word ______?

To create the mystery word, put the word from the second question on the end of the word from the first question (without spaces). Paste the mystery word (all letters lower case) into this URL (replacing the question marks “???” with the mystery word):

Now, plug/paste/type the new URL into your web browser and you will have completed your search for the Great Sand Dunes Park Webbox.
