Geocache Description:

Historic Georgia Geocaching Series #15 Red Oak

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.

The final coordinates can be calculated as follows:

Add the year it is believed that Lorenzo Dow preached here to 5108 to find the N coordinates:

(Year Preached) + 5108 = Last four digits of the North Coordinates.

N 33 2 _ . _ _ _

Add the year that Major Lewis Hogg, a Revolutionary soldier, was buried to 7692 to find the West Coordinates:

(Year Buried) + 7692 = Last four digits of the West Coordinates.

W083 4 _ . _ _ _

Bring your own pencil and have fun!
