Update to this Quest

N.B.: The PDF you can download above is up to date. If you are using a valley quest book, insert these clue updates:

CLUE CHANGE for stanza #4, renovations in White River Junction! Go left past three new buildings. The first houses RSG The second even newer building Is just as modern as can be!

CLUE CHANGE for the penultimate stanza: Remember the light posts you counted before, subtract 5 from the number you got. (Because of a change to one of the light posts, it isn’t as easily recognized. Subtract 5 instead of 6.)
