| | AZROADIE'S LETTERBOXING ACTIVITIES |
Letterboxing is an international outdoor recreational activity. Basically, small boxes are hidden in the great outdoors, and clues to finding boxes located in North America are posted to the "Letterboxing North America" or "Atlas Quest: International Letterboxing" websites. The boxes contain a rubberstamp and a logbook.
Those trying to find the boxes have their own stamp and logbook. When the box is found, the finders stamp their logbook with the stamp from the box, and then stamp the logbook in the box with their personal stamp and write a brief message. The box is then hidden away again. The wonderful thing about letterboxing is that it takes you to places you may not otherwise visit!
Go to the Letterboxing North America or Atlas Quest: International Letterboxing websites for additional information. The book "The Letterboxer's Companion" gives a nice introduction to the activity.
My letterboxing trail name (nickname or handle) is "Azroadie".
The letterboxes are listed in chronological order by the date I found them:
| 2003 | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | ||||||
This is the signature stamp I use to stamp the logbooks in the letterboxes:
This is my old stamp (used from October 2003 to February 2006):
