This is too much of a story and I just had to add on to it. After reading what happened to you, Huntress, I also had an similar occurrence. I know exactly how you felt because I am also sure that I found the exact same box in TX, lol. Here are the pics that I took while boxing I encounter this bobcat. I managed to return the box and grabbed my things. This happened almost 5 years ago. Cute kitty!

That Bobcat just kept walking toward me...and passed by about 4 ft from me! One of the joggers in the area said, âoh yeah, they are around...if you donât bother them, they wonât bother you!â But the bad part was that the box was missing!

Ok - I made the photo album, The Huntressâs Bobcatâ But I donât know how to put a link in this message. Note: the close up picture is not on Zoom, and it was taken with my iPhone. The other picture is just as the Bobcat walked out when we read the clue (added the highlighting later), but this wasnât a great picture...I was in a hurry and a little nervous!

It just sat there on the log while you took its picture? That is one semi-tame cat.

Awesome photos, Huntress! Yes, it just like the clues read at box 9. What an amazing coincidence.

Here's what I heard lately: If you're hiking a trail and you smell cucumbers, beware! There's a copperhead nearby. Anybody else ever heard that?

Oh wow! What an interesting and possibly scary experience! I'm sure that's one trip that won't easily be forgotten! Great shot of the bobcat, too!

Of course I did, this was my third attempt at that box and I really wanted it. Turns out it was the wrong den.
