A most lovely letterboxing expedition on my birthday! We found boxes 1, 2, and 4, all in great condition and superb carvings!!

Box #1 is in a fairly overgrown area, though still pretty easily accessible by going around from the right. Just wear long pants. Box #5 might be missing - we found the wood retaining wall (hairpin left just before we passed the picnic table?) but there was just a water bottle and some other trash stuffed into the wall near the third post.

Excellent series! Well done! Beautiful, well planned hike, accurate and efficient clues, boxes exactly where they were expected to be. Gorgeous artwork accompanies a magical theme. We nabbed the first 4. Box 5 will wait for a day less crowded.

Great hike! And beautiful stamps. Found all five in good condition and right where they are supposed to be. Thanks for the lovely hike.

Everything is remarkably dry considering the weather we've had lately. I had trouble with #1 which may very well still be there but there was so much eucalyptus debris about that I could have been 2 inches from a box and not know it. There's a lot of small trees in front that made access tricky - tried from behind too but no luck. No one else seems to have commented on this problem so maybe I was doing something wrong

These are pretty impressive! We enjoyed our hike and stumbled upon a geocache. Everything looked good.

Found these a few weeks ago but forgot to log. Nice hike and great carves as usual!

WOW! what nice carves, and hike. We went a step further and tried to find an old box at the top of the trail. Boo Hoo no luck GOA

We did it! Brought my cousins, three generations along for their first letterboxing adventure! Very imaginative, intricate carvings!

Had a great hike out there this afternoon. The first hill was steep!
Thanks for planting this series and the carves came out great.
