Deceangi: Rather than keep this cache temporarily disabled (which should only be used for shortish periods) I'm archiving it. If/when the cache is ever replaced I'll gladly unarchive it assuming it still meets the guidelines.

Please avoid geolitter by removing any remaining traces of your cache or contact a local cacher to do so for you. If you are having difficulty doing so then please contact me via my profile and I will try to get someone to assist.

Everyone knows and loves Indiana Jones.
You may have guessed from his name that he had Welsh heritage, but how many of you knew he had a middle name of Colwyn and that he perfected his skills in Colwyn Bay as a child?
Well Indy is back in Colwyn Bay as an adult, and he knows he hid some treasure and locked it up securely.
But he can't remember where he hid the treasure exactly and he hasn't a clue where the key is!
But he did write down a code for the key room based on lost civilisations.
This was to stop Indy's enemies, the Nazis, from getting his treasure.
You will need to visit 8 other sites to collect information as Indy kept his paperwork everywhere and he knows that by collecting the numbers and civilisations at the different sites, you can help find the lost key room.
As you visit each of Indy's old archaeological sites, make sure that you keep good records as you'll need the numbers and civilisations to locate the key room.
Some of the sites will have the paperwork stowed securely so could be a bit tricky to find.
Keep on looking though, Indy needs YOU and YOUR help!

You will need to visit the following traditional cache sites around Colwyn Bay in no particular order, which ever is easiest or quickest for you...
The Eagle's Nest - GC18R7Z
The Cathedral of the Hills - GC18R80
The Footpath to the Harbour - GC18R81
Spooky Woods - GC18R82
The Ancient Church - GC18R83
The Folly - GC18R84
The Old Mill Race - GC18R85
The Docks - GC18R86
Once you have the values of the different civilisations, you will be able to find out where the key room is with the following information that Indy can remember.
The Lost Key Room is located at:- N53 1AZTEC. ROMAN MAYAN PERSIAN W3 4INCA. BABYLON VIKING KHMER
Once you found the lost key room, you'll have the co-ordinates for the Lost and Locked Treasure! - GC18R8E
Best of luck!
