This letterbox is part of the GO and Build a Better World! program in Adams County. It will be available from June 3, 2017 to July 29, 2017. Further details about the program may be found at www.goadams.org.
The GO and Build a Better World! program requires you to search for up to 15 “landmarks” – wooden posts with engraved plates on them, instead of a traditional letterbox and stamp. Please use a colored pencil or crayon to carefully rub the impression onto your GO and Build a Better World! rubbing sheet, available for free at any Adams County Library.
GO Adams! level of difficulty = Easy
- Start at the flagpole in front of the pool building.
- Look toward the high antenna tower and locate a wooden bridge nearby. Carefully cross the parking area and walk to the bridge.
- After crossing the bridge, you will pass a 3-trunked tree on your left. Continue to the cement pad in the distance.
- Just beyond this area, you should find a gravel trail heading into the woods. Hike up this trail.
- At the first split in the trail, stay to your right along the ridge. You should see orange markings painted on some of the trees along this trail.
- Continue right along the ridge. The tree will eventually start to go downhill.
- When the trail reaches the bottom of the hill and turns left, look to your right. The post should be off the trail slightly.
- After locating the post, continue along the trail as it winds toward the creek.
- Cross the wooden bridge on your right and then locate another one across the field on your left.
- Cross the 2nd bridge and continue back to the flagpole.
Hike length: 0.5 miles
