Box Clue: stand behind “IT” [3/30/07 Note: "IT" has been moved up about 10 feet -- it'll probably be moved back about 10 feet at the end of summer -- so take that into consideration, depending on the season] and face 282 on your compass. Walk [until you come to the rocks and then walk along them to the right] until you come to the large flat rock. Stand on rock. To the top left of rock is a small rock wedged between it and another large rock. Box is under small rock. To get to box, remove the tiny rock at the base of the small rock on river side and dig -- we've buried it so it isn't an obvious find... but you won't have to dig for long because it's only buried under about an inch of sand.

When replacing the box, be sure to bury it again and then wedge the tiny rock firmly back in place.

Be discreet. Be stealthy. There's LOTS of activity and there can be MANY eyes upon you... so don't just hit and run, hang-out a little while so you don't draw attention to yourself... besides, it's a REALLY good spot to sit and watch the sunset!
