These stamps are two parts to a whole. You have the Fish Head and the Fish Tail and you have to find both of them to put them together and form the whole Fish! :)
He may have been foolhardy when he made a large purchase of land to the north, but it was no folly to name this park after him!
Take the road towards the amphitheater and park at the pavilions before the Fish Hatchery. Take the road (no vehicles allowed) down to the Lake. At the Lake, turn to the left and walk until you reach a small building. Climb the first set of stairs on your left. At the fork go right past the white house and chain link fence. When you reach an intersection with a gravel path there will be a bench and a sign board. Go left on the gravel path for approximately 95 steps. On your right will be a short path to a large tree. To the left of the tree is a small thick hollow log. The Fish Head Letterbox is in this log covered by loose bark and debris.
Continue on the gravel path and take a right just before you reach the road (taking a left down the road would return you to your car). But you take the right just before the road and at the fork go left. Go over 3 boardwalks and the first cedar tree you see on your right has the Fish Tail Letterbox in a crevice at its base. (in the rear of the tree and covered by cedar needles and debris).
You can backtrack to the gravel path and take a left on the road to your car or continue on this path to the picnic area and then backtrack left along the road to your car.
As always, please be discreet. Use caution when reaching into crevices and dark places. Also, read the waiver of responsibility and disclaimer.
Thanks, Amanda from Seattle
