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. One of the artifacts in the Spanish Mission display in the museum is part of a type of weapon. How many letters are in the name of this weapon? That number = 'A'.

Stage 2. Along the path to the fort, there is a sign that contains information about the sawmills that were on the site after the occupation of the fort for about 200 years. According to this sign, what is the third digit of the last year that the Savannah Lumber company was in operation? This number = 'B'.

Stage 3. The tallest building in the fort has how many westward facing cannons? This number = 'C'.

Stage 4. The largest memorial stone in the cemetery states how many British soldiers lost their lives at Fort King George. What is the second digit of that number? This number = 'D'.

The code to unlock the lock on the Geocache is 'ABCD'.
