The posted coords bring you a large sign that has two large brown posts. You will use this sign to figure out the numbers needed for the combination lock that's on the container, which is located inside the nature center.
Use the four big words on the sign to get the lock combo.
- The amount of letters in the first word is the first digit on the lock combo.
- The amount of letters in the second word is the second digit on the lock combo... and so on.
- After you're done counting you will end up with four digits.
- Go inside the nature center (hours of operation are listed below) and find the ammo can. (hint: it's under the guest book registry). Either one of the red doors will get you there, and both are handicapped accessible.
The nature center's hours are:
Monday - Saturday 8am-4:30pm
Sundays and Major Holidays - CLOSED
