Block Island North Light Multi-Cache

This is a two stage multi with a virtual first stage. In the vicinity of stage 1 you will find the numbers needed to track down the final. It is a 0.5 mile sandy walk from the Northern-most parking to the lighthouse so plan accordingly. The final stage is a short drive away and a shorter, easier walk from the parking.

In the 20 years or so before the first light was built here at Sandy Point in 1829, 59 schooners, sloops, brigs, and ships all ran aground on the rocks surrounding the island. The current structure is the fourth lighthouse built on the site and was made of granite and iron in 1867.

When you arrive at the light you will also find memorial benches and two sections of commemorative engraved bricks.

You are looking for a particular brick that reads

LET US GO THEN
YOU AND I...

Once you find it, the numbers needed for the final are nearby.

Below and to the right you will find a brick containing dates: 6/A/8E - 10/9/0B

Below and to the left you will find a brick containing the date MAY 1C 199D

The final coordinates are N41 1A.BC4 W71 3D.EC2

The final is a small lock-n-lock style container hidden behind a couple of rocks, about 10 feet from the path and about 2 feet off the ground.
