Trail difficulty: easy.
Walk distance: very short .
Stamp hand-carved.
Status: alive and well on November 13, 2016.

Driving on I-8 east of the small community of Dateland, turn off at exit 78 for Spot Road and drive a short distance north to the north frontage road. Turn right and park near the huge white 2-pole abandoned sign.

To the left of the 2 large poles is a large concrete pad. Walk along the right edge of the pad to the north corner of the concrete pad. At that corner is a sawed-off telephone pole. Walk at about 15 degrees (from mag. north) for about 40 steps to a medium size Mesquite Tree. The box is on the northeast side of the tree under a flat chunk of concrete.

Please please be sure the contents are double ziplocked when you put them back in the box (i.e. the stamp is in a ziploc, the book is in a ziploc, and the two are in the larger ziploc bag) and put all of it INSIDE the box. Please rehide the box well under the chunk and covered with some plant debris so that it can not be seen from any direction.
