What is Letterboxing?

What is letterboxing? WHAT IS LETTERBOXING!? Well, let me tell you.
“The idea is pretty simple. Letterbox clues lead you to the secret location of a box that contains a stamp and logbook. You carry with you your personal stamp and personal logbook. When you figure out the clues and find the box, you stamp the box’s logbook with your personal stamp, and stamp your personal logbook with the box’s stamp”(The Letterboxer’s Companion by Randy Hall viii).
Letterboxing is verry much like Geocashing (“Clues are given as GPS coordinates, and geocachers use the ‘take an item, leave an item’ system when finding a cache” [atlasquest.com/about/glossary].). It is fun and almost like a treasure hunt.
One can obtain the clues on the following websites:
www.Letterboxing.org
www.atlasquest.com
You simply pick your location, get the clues to where boxes are and then you go find them!
