Pink ribbon on tree gone, some rocks and stumps gone.

The last box was in the open, and nearly in the parking lot, so I put it behind the tree and covered it with rocks. The contents are in perfect condition.

The ones we couldn't find...we think we were in the right place...

This was such FUN. Perfect day to be out with friends. We found the gangster container open and looked all around, but couldn't find the stamp. Replaced container in the spot, though. Had a great day LB'ing.

First the arrow that points to the trail, which is on the tree is missing, but it is the trail just prior to the creek. I also found the lid for science fiction. We spent about 10 minutes digging through the area with that stump but could not find the rest of the letterbox.....

I love discovering this beautiful park in my own neighborhood!

On Science Fiction found only top of bottle. The stump was rotted and fell apart. We searched through the rubble and could not find the rest of the bottle.

The arrow to the beginning of the path is gone. The trail starts between the parking lot at the bottom of the hill and the road.

a fun series! but I think there's been more erosion since the gathering. some of the orange fence that you refer to fell into the ravine, and has been replaced with yellow caution tape. and I think the '7 trunked tree' for War may have fallen into the gorge also. But it was a beautiful fall day for boxing.

War was not in the tree and the tree with comedy has slid off the side of the cliff into the creek. We did not get down to the tree but we may do at some time in the future

Most outstanding wooded series we've experienced to date. Regrettably, "War" and it's host, along with several fallen commrades, lie in the river basin 15 feet down from the trail due to erosion, wind storms and flooding between the end of February 2009 and middle of March 2009. We could not locate the log book as well however we had an Erie County Sheriff watching our moves with 10 minutes of twlight remaining so we broke off the attempt and will double check our clues when we return for other area boxes.

Thank you for all of the work put into this making it still a fantastic adventure for Teachuh and Sugarpops.
