Diseñar, crear y grabar su propio sello.

It would be a good idea to find two or three boxes before creating your own stamp. The http://letterboxing.org site has great information about “How to make a Rubber Stamp”. Most letterbox stamps don’t have the wood backing to save space, but many think the stamp looks better and is more durable when the wood backing is added.

There are many local craft stores to find the resources, such as Michaels, but two websites where you could order them have been listed in the References section below. If you encounter other universal sources, please add them to the list. Soft rubber or red erasers can be found many places.

Como unidad, club o familia, encontrar las pistas y luego localizar al menos 10 cajas de tesoro, cuatro de estas pueden ser parte de una serie. Individualmente, «sellar» su sello, grabar el sello de la caja del tesoro encontrada en su libro personal y registrar su hallazgo en la página web.

The http://letterboxing.org is the website for finding caches in North America and a few other countries. http://atlasquest.com is an international site and includes websites for England (where it started), Germany and other sites used worldwide. Http://geocaching.com lists letterboxes worldwide along side convential geocaches.

Although over 30,000 boxes have been hidden, not all of them can still be found. Instructors should find 2 or 3 boxes before the group goes out in order to decrease initial discouragement. This requirement has been listed as a group activity, mainly for safety reasons, both on the internet and in the field. But make sure each Pathfinder participates and learns how to follow instructions and clues. If your group is large, divide into units no bigger than five. When clues have not been very clear ask the Pathfinders how they would improve the directions.

Some series include 8 to 10 boxes. Only four of these should be counted toward the 10 to require visiting more than one site for the honor.

-The four major directions are north, east, south, and west.  The sun can tell you the direction if you remember that it rises in the east and sets in the west.  In the northern hemisphere, it moves from east to south the west.  In the southern hemisphere, it moves from east to north to west.  At noon, the sun will be either in the south (northern hemisphere) or north (in the southern hemisphere).
 The table below gives the approximate direction of the sun depending on the time and which hemisphere you are in.
