Virtual Letterboxing is much like the traditional except you do it in the comfort of your home. You log onto Atlasquest and search the letterboxes for "virtuals". Last time I checked, there were about 25 pages of this to search out. You choose one and go and read it's clue. If you already know the answer, you add it in and then record the find. If you don't know the answer immediately, you can go "research" the answer and then submitt it and record the find. By "recording the find" you are simply keeping track of how many, and titles of one you have completed. Virtuals do not add to your PFX (Plant, Find, Exchange) number. Many are for fun, a lot are educational and some require some serious thinking.
Next time you find yourself inside because of the weather or by not feeling 100%, try doing a few virtuals. I'll warn you....they can become addictive. Most end up with a picture of some sort. If you really wanted to go to the trouble, you could print that picture out and add it to your logbook....or better yet, start another logbook strictly for virtuals....we did.
We hope you found this information meaningful. Enjoy and Happy Letterboxing!!!
