You can check your answers for the first puzzle on Geochecker.com.

Stage #3. At the location found at stage #2, turn and face the item with writing on it. Use the hints below to find three values.

• A = Add the last two digits in the lower right hand corner.

• B = The first number in the year he was born.

• C = The number of words within a state-shaped outline.

Arrange the results like so- A B C. This gives you the first half of the code you need. The bottom of the code is found if you know what Dewey put in 340. If you still need help go south about four steps and go west as far as you can. Stop and look around for help.
