Geocache Description:

Historic Georgia Geocaching Series #6

This is a short two stage multi. As in all of these caches, it requires that the geocacher read a little history of the area. Stage one will take you to the history you will need to solve the cache.

Lorenzo Dow was a Methodist circuit preacher who traveled in the 1700 and 1800's. He preached from New York to Mississippi. He is said to be the first person to ever preach in Jasper County. An interesting history can be found here: (visit link)

To solve the final cache, what year did Dow preach from this rock?
_ _ _ _
A B C D

E=D-A

F=B-D

The final coords can be calculated as follows:

N 33 2 B. C A A
W083 4 F. E E E

The final is a short drive from the first stage. Bring your own pencil and have fun!
