The mascot for the Brownwood Schools is a lion. So I carved a stamp. Since I was going to look for two stamps in Lake Brownwood State Park, I decided to hide my box there also.

Directions:
Lake Brownwood State Park is 16 miles northwest of the town of Brownwood. Take State Highway 279 to Park Road 15 then east 6 miles to the park. Stop to pay the fee and get a map. Find the Willow Point camping area and park near the fishing pier close to the hiking trail shown on the map.

To the Box:
From the parking area, walk back up a few paces to the upper end of the trail (not the one closest to the lake. This trail goes steeply uphill via a series of rock steps placed by the CCC. Go all the way to the top of the hill.

When you get to the top take the animal trail to the left for 22 steps. Look at the base of the tree on the right under a large rock. Please re-hide carefully, don't crush the box with the rock. Thanks.

Hike length: 0.5 miles
