We put a big rock on the last one, so everyone can find it again.

Here is my suggestion. Take out your pen and cross out any 'block numbers'. They will only confuse you as the numbers have all changed. Once I did that, I headed back to where I started and found the first three boxes with no problem. To get to number 4, you cannot go straight, so make a right and stay on this curvy trail until you can see where the trail you should of been appears on your left. I did find the '4 sister' tree in the clues, but for the life of me, I couldn't find this 'hold'. Oh well.

Back on Edmund Hill Trails today and found the elusive Box 3. Perfect stamp for Alternative Energy! NOTE: the trails in this area have been renumbered and there are many new wooded posts. For Box 3, the 3-way split is now closest to new marker #13 (old #23), which added a little extra challenge! I ran out of time so couldn't revisit Box 4 today. But will surely be back.

Found 1, 2 and 4. Somehow missed 3, but now have a great excuse to return and hike this fun trail again! Will bring along a spare logbook when I go back (if you want) as the one in box 4 is full. Thanks for this awesome series!

When you head off to get the last box the fork is now a T. The straight ahead has been blocked off and now there is a meandering trail to the right. That's the way you want to go. After a long walk downhill you will come to the spot that trail would have come out (blocked off). The last box is still after that.

Finally got back to get this one that I missed in 2011!

Finally got back here after finding #1 and #4 back in 2013. #3 was tricky and I had to do some backtracking. If I had seen the red triangle on the right, which was soon after the 3-way, then I would have recognized the "boulder field" and seen the stamping rock. The tree across from it has lost its 2nd half. Also the box is closer to the front of the rock than the back.

Enjoyable series. Thanks for planting.
