Our First Letterboxing Adventure

Welcome to Char-Mar Preserve
Delaware County Ohio
October 9, 2011

We found our clues on http://www.letterboxing.org/ before beginning our adventure.  Noah was designated as our "clue reader".  The clues take you off the beaten path, but it was fun to navigate through the leaves and over fallen trees and rocks, climb up dry creek beds and explore.

Unfortunately, we confirmed that the 1st and 4th "letterboxes" remain "unkown".

Our clues for the "Animal Quest" led us to two letterboxes!  We were thrilled to find the "froggy", which took a lot of effort and the "lizard", which we easily found. 

We brought our own stamp pad, stamp and pen and wrote a comment in the letterbox before concealing the letterbox for the next adventurer(s).

We had a wonderful time at Char-Mar and hope to have another letterboxing adventure soon!
