Ferndale is famous for its charming Victorian houses, so I created a letterbox in honor of it. It's a cute little town that deserves more attention! =)

Clue

You'll want to head out to the Ferndale Cemetary--perhaps the nicest cemetary I've ever seen--and head up to a large, white cross marking a pastor's grave. It's about 8 feet fall, I would guess, and has a commanding view of the town of Ferndale. From that point, follow a small trail to the right through the woods to a small, paved road. There, head up the road about 15 steps. The letterbox is hidden behind a small, non-descript stump overlooking the right side of the road. It's probably easier to access from where you first came out on the road at rather than climb up the steep slope directly to the stump.
