Geocache Description:

You are looking for an ammo box

This cache is placed very near the site where researchers from Western Michigan University recently unearthed archaelogical evidence of a colonial fort built by the French in 1691. The actual site and the artifacts that have been found will not be open for public viewing until August 13th and 14th, 2011 but as you search for this cache you will be walking the same ground where Jesuit priests walked as they founded a mission, where Native Americans and Voyageurs came to exchange goods, knowledge, and culture, and where French, British, and Spanish soldiers fought for control of the fort, the surrounding land, and for safe travel on the nearby St. Joseph River.
