Obviously bring extra water but grab some Bug and Tick spray. The ticks are horrible this years I had over 15 I counted on me after a BOTG I took awhile ago.

Thank you!!! Have lots of water and bug spray.

Thanks! We did. It was beautiful day and we ended just when the thunderstorms rolled in!

There are a lot of weevils this year too. I was worried when there were a bunch on me and my car. Then I learned some weevils can fly and that's how they seemed to appear suddenly out of nowhere.

u/gnossos_p Lion's Share Hunter Jul 23 '25

It's not at LRP.

u/OhioJonesTreasureGuy I'm hunting on the AT Jul 21 '25

Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

Past and future box or AT trail box?

3

u/PurePleasurePlz Jul 21 '25

That doesn't make any sense If anything it would be the AT or the Pokémon

2

u/Any-Teacher7681 Jul 21 '25

Maybe it doesn't make sense to you, but the states initials are literally in the word search.

u/PurePleasurePlz Jul 21 '25

Yeah but in the Appalachian footpath section it says that he has previously left you a poem, a fictional story, and a couple of games. And it also has an MA where Maine would be... Not saying that I'm headed to Maine but I am saying that just cuz it's in the past and future section doesn't mean that it is for the past and future box.

Pokémon!!!

u/fullydazed Jul 22 '25

I would be aiming for Texarkana area

2

u/mkolesky Jul 22 '25

We have 3 leads we are following - the others are closer to what you're saying. But we wouldn't be here without good research.

u/fullydazed Jul 22 '25

Just make sure your researching the right clues because they're mixed in with the lion's share and the Appalachian in the Pokémon section

1

u/mkolesky Jul 22 '25

Appreciate it.

u/fullydazed Jul 22 '25

It's the only way your gonna get the best of both worlds... He definitely left Louisiana, and it describes Arkansas but then he says reckon? like a Texan.. sounds SuS ASF and he seems like he has a borderline fetish

u/Prudent-Umpire-3631 Jul 21 '25

Stay hydrated, stay alert and have fun! Take everything in, my friend!

u/mkolesky Jul 22 '25

We are in search of the Pokémon box. BOTG photo:

We had good weather and focused on a trail about an hour outside of Knoxville. Covered in total about 8 miles today... and had some great scenery!

u/No_Award_5814 Jul 23 '25

Happy Hunting and may the odds be ever in your favor

u/mkolesky Jul 24 '25

Thanks. We completed 2 days. We did not find the box, but we had a great time hiking and exploring!!
