Duncan Memorial Park, known locally as Duncan Woods, is a quiet little preserve area located near downtown Grand Haven. There is a small network of trails and a picnic area.
The park is open year-around and closes at dusk. There is no entry fee to the park. Dogs are allowed on leash.
These six unrelated letterboxes are all fairly quick and easy finds — perfect for travelers just passing through the area, or a fun family activity on a weekend afternoon! These trails are heavily used by dog-walkers and there is at least one geocache in this park, so please be discreet, carry the box away from the hiding spot to stamp in and replace the box as found, being sure to conceal it carefully.
Historical Note of Reference…
At the time this letterbox was originally placed, there was a small grouping of trees standing in the middle of the parking lot. The trees have since been removed, but the asphalt is patched in the spot where they once stood.
Getting There…
From U.S. 31 in Grand Haven, take Taylor west to Sheldon. Turn right (north) onto Sheldon and the park will be on your left.
Clues…
From those that stood in the middle, proceed at 125 degrees to the broken one standing on the middle of the hill. Add 15 degrees and proceed toward the “Y” in the middle of two with many broken arms. A few steps before you get there, stop at the path and head to your right at 210 degrees.
When you find yourself caught in the middle, choose the middle way. 30 paces beyond a sprawling, ugly pine standing in the middle of two paths, follow the trail at 310 degrees, and take a left at the first intersecting path. Follow this route to the place where you find Scott and Chris standing alongside the trail.
Find the box somewhere in the middle of a hollow trunk, standing in the middle of the woods, in the middle of East and West.
