I took up letterboxing because my sister told me it was so much fun. So I started and loving it. Trying to keep my son involved. He likes the events more than the actually "hunting". And I like how it gets me out to places I would have never found before.

I took up boxing because I like the "treasure hunt" idea of it plus I needed an excuse to do more walking.

Me too. I love the hunt! The walking is just a bonus.

it could be that some guys may be into letterboxing precisely because it appeals to females.

I took up letterboxing because I thought it would be a great way to spend some quality time with my kids, outside of the house, away from TV and Video Games and out in the open, doing some hiking and treasure hunting. Letterboxing has taken us to some very interesting places. Most of all, it's fun!

last summer we attended an event with very few men present......
one of the men said "Gotta love a hobby that's 85% female, huh Charlie?".....

So.... there could be some truth to the above statement.

Romana,
I believe what you say about the little boys and little girls.
It is sad that even in today's society, so much is "Gender appropriated" in our children.

ALSO THE OTHER.....

Charlie and I love to be outside....... and we wouldn't ever just GO for walks or hikes..... but for the letterbox ???? We're there....

My boys look at it like a treasure hunt and they love it. And they like the places that we get to go. For me, I am an outdoorsman. I hunt, fish, hike, water ski, you name it. But I am also very creative and crafty. I learned to sew at 5, do counted cross stitch at 7, candle wicking by 9, and I have been cooking since I can remember. I also love to write and draw, so letterboxing encompasses alot of my passions in one past time.

Now if Ryan could just develop a Wii Letterboxing Game that I can play when I have insomnia or really nasty weather sets in, all the bases would be covered.

they're called virtuals. yeah, some of them are one question you can answer with both hands tied behind your back, but some of them take serious thought and work to solve.
