The cache is located in Keowee Toxaway State Park on Highway 11.
Once inside the park you must venture out on the Cherokee Interpretive Trail. It is a short walk containing four kiosks outlining the history of the Cherokee. On one of the kiosk, there is a display titled "The Time of Trouble: The First Cherokee War". The first line of the display reads "By the middle of the 18th Century, 1750, the good relations between the Cherokee and the English had begun to sour." The last line reads "One of centers of the approaching conflict was to be Fort Prince George which lay on the Keowee River about ___ miles directly behind this exhibit." The number of miles is the missing number in the following coordinates which will take you to the cache.
N 34 ° 55.7X3
W 82 ° 53.076
