Geocache Description:


Come visit a four-part multi cache located in historic Fort Norfolk. The cache was designed by the Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to help promote STEM-related career fields in a fun and engaging way.

Each stage is tied to one of the fields in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) and the final box contains a combination lock. In order to open the lock, you'll need to solve two riddles during the search.

Please Note: The cache is located on an active federal installation and security measures are in place to ensure the safety of employees and visitors. The grounds of Fort Norfolk are open to the public from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, including holidays. Guests must park behind the guard house and must sign the visitor log. No weapons, pets or alcohol are permitted on the installation.

If you have any feedback, feel free to contact us at NAO_STEM@usace.army.mil.
