Cache Description

NOTE: Hardman Farm Historic Site is open from March - December only.

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. After paying your admission, take a look around the office and find the sign commemorating Hardman Farm's Gold Award from the US Green Building Council. As you read the sign, you will see that the project received 46 of X points. Use the first number in X. This number = 'A'.

Stage 2. At this stage, you will notice the Hardman Farm dinner bell. Examine the bell closely, and you will see a four digit number. Use the last digit. This number = 'B'.

Stage 3. Here you will see a large wrap around porch To find the next number in the combination, count up all the WICKER chairs you see, and from that number, subtract the number of porch swings. Finally, add one to your answer. This number = 'C'.

Stage 4. At the dairy, you will see an information sign. Read the sign to learn how many cows had to be milked before the children had to be at school. It is a 2 digit number (XY). Subtract Y from X. This number = 'D'.

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