Letterboxing is an intriguing “treasure hunt” style outdoor activity. Letterboxers hide small, weatherproof boxes in publicly-accessible places (like parks) and post clues to finding the box online on one of several Web sites. However, clues to finding some of the most highly-sought boxes are passed around by word of mouth.

There are about 60,000 active letterboxes listed on LbNA alone. Individual letterboxes usually contain a log book, an often hand-carved rubber stamp and occasionally contain an ink pad. Finders make an imprint of the letterbox’s stamp on their personal log book, and leave an imprint of their personal stamp on the letterbox’s logbook.

It would be very helpful for people to record their finds, to keep those Last date found information Updated. Also leaving even a short comment that may be helpful to the next boxer, whether it’s condition of box (maybe owner or next boxer could do some first aid) or box may be missing or moved to a close by spot. When I’m searching the list for boxes to go find, I check the dates last found, and the comments. I have passed up some with long ago found dates. I’ve found boxes that have been found/stamped recently but not recorded.
