This is the 3rd box to be placed at Lemoine Point. The stamp was carved by Talking Turtle of The AlphabetBandits.
It can be done after the 1st and original box called just Lemoine Point and then one can do the 3rd box. See appopriate clues.
Degree of Difficulty – easy, a liittle bit of rock hopping, mostly flat trail
Est. Time – about 45 min
Terrain – level trail, stairs and rocky shore
Lemoine Point Conservation Area near Kingston airport has a good website. Directions to the area and trail maps can be found here:

You will enter at the southern entrance off Front Road. After parking turn left (west) on the Shore trail # 1 heading into the woods past Lemoine Pt farm. The trail will split near a picnic/campfire area –stay left. When you get near the shore you’ll see a bench and the trail turns right (north), following the shoreline. Continue on until you see a set of stairs. Go down to the shore.
After you come down the stairs go left (south) about 12 paces and have a seat on the flat rock. Looking left you will see a cedar tree with a large angled rock leaning on it. The 1st LB is behind the tree. Part the lower branches carefully, reach around the back of the largest trunk, move a small rock which is covering the box. Watch the overhead trail to ensure you aren’t being watched. Replace carefully, this is a popular spot! Now you can find the FLutterby nearby. Continue southward along the shore, crouch down to avoid getting bonked by overhanging branches. You'll come to a large flat rock area followed by a large triangular rock on it's side that seems to bar the way. HOwever you can get around it! Then head for the clump of cedars immediately to your left. Flutterby is in here, rehang his little camo home carefully when you leave.
Now you can go back to the trail and look for P.U. if you haven't already found him.
You can return to your car by backtracking or continue along the Shore Trail and return on another trail. There is a good trail map on the website.
