+briansnat Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 that site looks like all links and equipment. where would i put , say, a zip code to find the ones near me?T You can't. They don't have the functionality of this site. Thought Letterboxing.org is the biggest listing site in the US, there are others. Letterboxingcentral.com is another. Letterboxing is less centralized than geocaching so you will find many small, personal letterboxing sites with clues listed. Clues are also passed around outside the Internet. Remember, Letterboxing predates the Internet by over 100 years. Quote Link to comment
+GatoRx Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 You can also try http://www.atlasquest.com/ No zip code lookup, but you can at least search by city and state right off the main page. It seems to be fairly popular among letterboxers. Quote Link to comment
TCE Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Letterboxing works through a map interface. You click on "clues" and you get the north america map. You click on your state, then the region you want to look for letterboxes. The boxes are listed by the city they're located in, and by name. You can also search by the name of the letterboxer, or by using a key word search. There is no zip code search, although World of Letterboxing is working on doing just that! I think their site is www.wol.com or .org or .net I'm not sure which. They have fewer boxes on their site, but I'm sure one day it will be incredible with all the functionality they're putting into it. I hope you find some boxes, they're cool Quote Link to comment
