A Letterbox Hybrid in stages, about 1/2 mile one way, can be done in less than an hour if you don’t dilly dally. It requires route finding, field puzzles, simple math, and tools of the trade. If you do your homework and carefully study the ENTIRE webpage, you can save several steps. In addition to the normal logbook and trade items, it also contains a letterbox stamp, inkpad, and stamp book. Please do not remove the stamp, ink pad, or stamp book. THEY ARE NOT TRADE ITEMS!
I am a witch or wizard from Edinburgh, and attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I have a ready mind for wit, learning, and wisdom. My “letterbox” is hidden in a green and beautiful location. Less than 500 feet from parking, your journey begins. Find the first item to “illuminate” your journey. From there, you will find various treasures, all of which contain a clue to the next. If you are brilliant enough, or do your homework (see below) before your start, you journey will be shortened, but even if you arrive at the first location unprepared, with persistence you will succeed! The final treasure symbolizes both my house and my homeland. All treasures are located near a path marked with trail blazes.
This is not meant to be particularly hard, it is meant to be fun. This letterbox merges both the Scottish Letterboxes and the Hogwarts Letterboxes. It is the only non-premium letterbox of the two groups. To view the rest, you must become a premium geocacher.
This is a letterbox hybrid. In addition to the normal logbook and trade items, it also contains a stamp hand carved by a fellow house member, along with an inkpad, and stamp book. Please do not remove the stamp, ink pad, or stamp book. THEY ARE NOT TRADE ITEMS!

There is a slight error in stage 2: it says that stage 3 is 0.22 miles down the trail, but it is actually only 415 feet down the trail.
