Mutiny on H.M.S. Bounty
Instructions
For the first stage you are looking for a GREEN Lock&Lock,
which will contain a book. It is recommended to print out your own
question sheets for stage 2 as it might make things a little
easier. The questions ARE ALSO taped to the inside of the container
in case you forget. Please make sure you rehide the container as
you found it and to use stealth. We tried to place the books in an
area where you could sit and read without looking too suspicious
for a while.
PLEASE ALLOW AT LEAST 30 MINUTES FOR STAGE TWO
Stage 2 is a silver bison tube containing the log book.
