Cache Description

This is a 4 stage mystery cache. You must visit each stage posted in the additional waypoint section below. At each stage you will gather a part of the 4 digit combination that unlocks the ammo can that is placed at the posted coordinates (inside the office).

Stage 1. How many marble statues are on display at Etowah Mounds? This number = 'D'.

Stage 2. How many of the mounds in the Etowah mounds complex are known to have been used as burial mounds? This Number = 'B'.

Stage 3. What number is beside the Bobcat mandible? This number = 'A'.

Stage 4. Wander through the museum and count the number of smoking pipes that are on display. Now count the number of metal objects that are of European origin that are displayed in the De Soto Display. Add these two numbers together. Take the second digit of the number. This number = 'C'.
