How I Came About Letterboxing


I first came across letterboxing by reading a book called "Foal In The Fog." I thought it sounded really interesting, so like we all do i googled it. at first i could only find the clues for Dartmoor, and was getting really annoyed, but eventually i found a page with hundreds of NYM letterbox Clues! i was absolutaly delighted!
None of my friends and family had heard of it, and when i explained the principle of it they seemed reluctant to share my enthusiasm. for example my Dad's comment was "What is the point in treking miles and miles for someones lost lunchbox?"
I eventually persuaded my Mum to take me looking for the first letterbox, (Yorkshire Rose Of Rosedale) and after that there has been no stopping us! This website is whre i am going to creat my "Diary" if you like of the letterboxing trips we have been on.
Enjoy!
