This is a replacement for the original Sullivan Clinton trail cache, with the first leg remaining the same (but with different field puzzle and a WP2 coordinate checker). The second and third legs are totally different. The first two legs will be reached by car and the third by a hike on foot. Pets and children are welcome here, but please take appropriate cautions!
NOTE!!!! ONLY COUNT THE ITEMS THAT ARE VISIBLE, AND NOT THE ONES THAT YOU CANNOT SEE.
From the plaque count the:
A= number of horses on the left
B= number of soldiers on left + number of states
C= number of Indians - number of eagles
D= number of horses on the right
E= number of Indians
F= number of soldiers on the right
G= number of soldiers on the left - number of Indians
The 2nd leg is located at: N 42 GA.BBF W 077 GC.DBE

Traveling from WP1 to WP2, we recommend West over East.
Because of continuing issues at WP2, I have decided to add another field puzzle,with another geochecker. (I heard that groan!)
You have arrived at WP2 and you are facing a structure. All questions are to be answered facing the structure with the road at your back. All blocks to be counted are ones you can see from the road. Hope you know your directions and your colors! (We already know you can count!)
P = Total blocks on vertical piece closest to sign
O = Number of white blocks on vertical pieces to right of sign plus number of red blocks on horizontal piece to right of sign
N = Total bolts to right of sign
M = Number of red blocks on diagonal piece to left of sign
L = Number of white blocks on diagonal piece
K = Number of white blocks on horizontal piece minus number of white blocks on diagonal piece to right of sign
J = Number of red blocks on horizontal piece
T = Number of white blocks on vertical piece closest to sign
U = Number of rivets on sign
V = Number of white blocks to right of sign on horizontal piece
W = Number of blocks on vertical piece to left minus number of blocks on vertical piece closest to sign
X = Number of red blocks on diagonal piece

Thanks to Mian9084 for noting that the difficulty to the final IS harder than when we had first placed the cache. Highly recommend boots, long pants, and long sleeved shirt.
Please replace final as good or better than you found it.
Hunting is allowed in final area, so please wear orange when appropriate!
BYOP
Thanks to NYS DEC for permission to place this cache!
To welcome back the snowbird Lucky46, Bee Hive was given about an hour head start on this cache.
