Geocache Description:

Ready! Aim! ...


This cache is located near the historic Fort William Henry. Fort William Henry was a British fort at the southern end of Lake George,  in New York. It is best known as the site of notorious atrocities committed by Indians against the surrendered British and provincial troops following a successful French siege in 1757, an event which is the focus of James Fenimore Cooper's novel The Last of the Mohicans, first published in January 1826. In fact this cache is located near two replica cannons that might have been used in the same time period.  

Feel free to take a few touristy pictures of yourself with the cannons. Besides, It might even help with the stealth factor. You might need it, as this area gets pretty busy during the summer. 
Muggle: "Hey, whatcha doing there?"
Cacher: "Nothing, just taking a few touristy pictures."

Hey, you could even take some fun touristy pictures and then add them to your log!

Due to the way this cache is hidden you'll either want small fingers, or some sort of tweezer to grab the container. To help prevent muggles, please be sure to hide it well, back in the same spot.
