This cache will require the determined hunter to use all their wits to find. The
coordinates given above are just a general starting point. From there you'll
need to explore your surroundings to uncover the answers to the questions below.
Once you have the answers, you'll need to substitute them in the spaces given
in the actual cache coordinates. Due to the historic nature of the site where
you will be seeking answers, the physical cache is hidden a good distance
away, in a standard green army ammo can.

through January 1. All other dates, you may be able to access the area via
snowmobile or cross country ski trip. The physical cache might be a little
difficult to find in the winter, but not necessarily impossible.
Important Note #2:There is a $3 fee to access the area. 100% of your fee
is used by this non-profit organization towards the ongoing preservation,
interpretation, and stabilization of the site.
Important Note #3:The answers to each question can be found in plain sight without moving, opening, or otherwise damaging the historic artifacts and structures, or require the assistance of the caretakers. You are, however, not forbidden from asking the caretakers, or anyone else on the site. You may find help, or hinderance.

Final Important Note About Artifacts:The staff at this site are looking forward to geocachers visiting, but they do have one request of you. There is a slight chance that you may stumble across historic artifacts while on this hunt. If you do, please don't touch it. The exact location, position and condition of such items is extreemly important to the archeologists (besides the fact that taking artifacts is illegal). If you find something you think they don't know about yet, you can take a picture and/or waypoint of the spot to provide the staff, but do so without touching it. Thank you.
