I was on Dartmoor, a couple of days ago and found numerous letterboxes. One from a 5 yr old called Nathan, that was extremely well hidden, I had no idea untill I got home and googled it how popular it actually is.

i love letterboxing, personaly i have only found 15 letterboxes, have you made an account on atlas quest yet because it is one of the best websites for clues in the world!! thanks

He did not seal the bag!!!!!! BAD BOXER!!!!!! The whole log book could be ruined in one rain fall due to his carelessness. The seal on the tupperware is not as waterproof as most people think!

If you look closely, the bag was already ripped. He did seal the box well, and that is the best anyone would be able to do without replacing the bag.

[nfmoon]

That box is not his property. Did he have permission of the planter to do this?

[juliahooks]

He didn't seal the baggie AND he said that letterboxing has only been around for 10 or 15 years!!! Little does he know that the original letterbox was planted in 1854!!!

Letterboxing has it's roots in England, where it originated nearly 150 years ago, and until recently has remained a well-kept secret. According to legend, in 1854 a Victorian gentlemen hiker placed his calling card in a bottle and stuck it into a bank at Cranmere Pool, in a remote part of Dartmoor in southwestern England. Over the years, the hobby developed; current reports indicate that as many as 10,000 letterboxes are presently hidden in Dartmoor, now a National Park.

Locals, and now letterboxers from around the world, visit Dartmoor seeking out these coveted boxes. Some avid Dartmoor letterboxers have collected thousands of stampings over the years. These comments from gigagraphicadotcom/Michelle/le­trbox visit the site.

I saw an article about letterboxing in a newspaper, and it looks really fun and something I'd love to do. Now I just need a stamp..

[phenyxangel]

wow just found out there's one practically in my backyard (if I had a yard) on a trail near my apartment complex... now if it just wasn't so hot to go out walking - but looks like I'll need to find me a good stamp and stamp pad soon ;)
