New Poll for Your Voting Pleasure!

We've updated our Letterboxing Poll which is located in the lower right column of this webpage.

This Poll deals with the question that was asked earlier this week on one of the talk lists as to what website boxers use to house their personal letterboxing clues. So now you can vote your preference below.

As you all know, Sue & I have our clues listed here, on the pinecone blog, but link to both LBNA & Atlas Quest. We feel this provides the maximum exposure for those clues that we want public. Other clues are just hidden on this website.

Oh - you didn't realize? There are at least 10 clues hidden in the over 100 pages of this website just waiting for you! As in all things with letterboxing - nothing is as it first appears!

What is Letterboxing?
Letterboxing enthusiasts hide and hunt weatherproof containers in remote or scenic places. Each container holds a logbook, a rubber stamp and stamp pad. The planter of the letterbox distributes clues to it's location via the internet, Word of Mouth, on websites or via other means. Clues can be easy to difficult. Finding a letterbox may require a combination of skills such as mapreading, orienteering, and puzzle-solving.

Letterboxers carry their own logbook and personal stamp when hunting for hidden boxes. Upon finding a letterbox, they will imprint their own logbook using the found stamp, and leave their own stamping or personalization in the letterbox's logbook. Some artistic letterboxers carve and even design their own stamps and logbooks. Letterboxes are hidden in various locations throughout the world.

Letterboxing has its beginnings in Dartmoor National Park in England, where the first letterbox at Cranmere Pool was placed in 1854 by a Dartmoor guide named James Perrott, who left his calling card in a container there while guiding tourists through Dartmoor.
