A trunk in a shell serves them well.
The hexagon held them against their will.
No lake, no pond, no bog; not even a puddle to wet a frog.
Seven in a cluster is the land it can muster.
Bonus clue, no extra charge: 'Tween your toes it will ooze, and it clings to your shoes.
Check Traveler tomorrow for the answer and an explanation of the clues.

Congrats to Eric (6:41 EDT), who was the first to identify Mystery Spot 25. We'll embargo the answer until tomorrow morning and let others take a crack at it.
Folks, remember that the mystery spot is not a national park. It is a place in a national park (one of the 394 National Park System units, that is).
Aside to Davey J.: You are in the ballpark.Now pin it down.
Soda Springs at Devils Postpile - just a major guess.
Sorry, Carol B; it's not Soda Springs at Devils Postpile.
Anon 7:35, Ed123, and L Bebout have all joined Eric in the winner's circle.
Cottonwood Springs. Joshua Tree NP.
Sorry, Jason; it's not Cottonwood Springs in Joshua Tree National Park.
