Solomon Schmuck, a relative of the Towson and Shealey families, built the oldest remaining building in Towson. Built between 1833 and 1841, the building at 617 York Road (only 250 feet North of the traffic circle, stop by and have a look) was also once owned by the silversmith Samuel Kirk.
At the posted coordinates is Waypoint 1 (N 39° 24.070, W 76° 36.010) you will need to determine how many letters are in the first name of Solomon’s wife. We will refer to this number as “W”.
The structure at Waypoint 2 (N 39° 23.910, W 76° 36.188) was once part of an old transportation system. What was the length (in miles) of the circuitous route that was covered by this historic ‘MA and PA’? We will refer to this number as “R”.
You will need to be vigilant at Waypoint 3 (N 39° 24.051, W 76° 36.435). That is all I will tell you, so what is the year of ‘Vigilant’? We will refer to this number as “V”.
You will need to do a few things at Waypoint 4 (N 39° 24.033, W 76° 36.498). When you arrive, you should be standing in a group of spheres. First, what is the square root of the number of spheres? Next, look East and up, what is the large three digit number you see? Multiply the square root of the number of spheres by the three digit number. We will refer to this number as “S”.
The final stage is N 39° 23.ABC’ and W 76° 36.DEF’
Now for some calculations;
V – S + 223 = ABC (W x R) - 219 = DEF
Check Sum for ABCDEF = 32
You can visit the waypoints in any order and the final stage will not be more than 0.5 mile from any one of them.
Muggles frequently visit GZ so stealth is required.
