Drive up Highway 260 from Payson, and turn left (north) at the Zane Grey Highway near Kohls Ranch. Drive 1/2 mile to the parking for the Horton Springs Trail. Park and begin your hike.
You will quickly arrive at a fence with a gate/pass through area.
You will then hike up the trail about 1/3 mile.
At this point you will see two paths: a smooth flat trail to the right, and a rough rocky trail climbing to the left (the old trail). Take the left (old trail and climb up the slight hill.
At the top you will find an old gate/pass through.
Continue up the trail another 50 feet.
Now go due east (90 degrees) for one hundred feet.
This will lead you to two 3 foot boulders which conceal the letterbox on the east side!
