****We've been told that the outside bag is sticking out of the hiding place. If you find this box, please hide it completely when done. Thank you.


The Greenburgh Nature Center (GNC) is a 33-acre nature preserve with trails, a pond and gardens. It also features a "Nature's Discovery" playground, a barnyard and models of Native American homes that children can enter. The grounds are free, but if you have little ones, they would enjoy visiting the indoor exhibits (fees apply), which includes a "live animal museum."

To the letterbox: Find the Barnyard, and then enter the trail which starts between the rabbit hutch and the sitting area. Walk a short distance to a large rock at a "T" intersection. Follow the blue trail to the right. Soon after, there is a clearing with "table and chairs." At that point, make a left onto the orange trail.

Shortly you'll see a giant stump on the left, and the trail will split again - go right onto the blue trail. At the next fork, bear right onto the purple trail. On the left you will see a "picnic table" and circle of trees stumps. Walk between them to the rock outcropping. Slightly to the left, there is a small boulder leaning against a large one. The letterbox, is behind the small boulder, hidden by sticks and leaves.

Thanks to Bonnie Lassie and Apple Cookie for their help with the clues!
