You should then be able to look SSW through the “V” formed by the tree. The box is in the crevice on R between boulders 5 & 6. Poke around with a stick to be sure the hiding place is not being shared with a snake or something else equally unpleasant. Consider wearing a work glove when you reach in to help protect against insects. Remember this is still the Sonoran desert and home to rattlesnakes, scorpions and black widow spiders. Seek this box at your own risk and be careful. |
