    My husband and I are working on the scavenger hunt. What a great idea! We found all but 1. It is the 4th one on the list. N39.83193, W074.62558. We tried it twice and were unable to find anything. The spot is just woods that look like they’ve had a recent fire. There is no historical marker that we could find and no tin with tokens. All of the other locations were easy to find. Is it possible that the number is wrong or the box is missing? Thanks for the fun idea!
