Clarks Corner
P laced: 2-24-02Placed By: WWW (Formerly known as Chuck Straub and his dog Molly) Location: Hampton Connecticut, Windham County Rated: Easy 10/14/10 - Box checked and is in place. Easy walk and parking. Although the letterbox is located only 6-10 feet up a hill it is difficult going up the steep hill to the box. Go east on route 6 from North Windham towards Hampton, take a right hand turn onto South Brook Road. Go a short distance on S Brook Road until you see Parker Road. Park near this intersection. Take the old Air Line railroad East of the intersection. Proceed down the tracks under the old wooden bridge. Very few of these bridges are left standing. You will be walking down the old rail line between cut ledge on both sides. When you come to a stone retaining wall on your left, follow it to its’ end. You will see a small curve in the wall at the very end. It points about 6 or 10 feet up a steep hill, to 3 trees growing from one trunk, and two trees that grow from one trunk. In between these trees there is a small rock you will need to move to reveal a large cavity in the rock. Remove the small stone and reach in to the right and you have found the Clarks Corner Letterbox. The walk to this box is about 5 to 10 minutes. Before you set out, please read the waiver of responsibility and disclaimer. |
