The answers to the questions in the clues for this webbox are located in Fort Union National Monument in northwestern New Mexico. Letterboxes are not allowed to be physically placed in national parks and national monuments administered by the National Park Service. So, I have created this webbox. You must actually visit the area of the clues; however, you need to go to the Web to obtain your finders stamp and sign the log book.

Enter Fort Union National Monument and park at the visitor center.

Exit the back of the visitor center. At the start of the trail is a large colorful interpretive sign titled “Explore Fort Union”; it has a map of the fort and a big group of people on it. Under the title, in the 2nd paragraph (starts with the words "The mountains"), in the 2nd line what is the 2nd word ______?

Walk on the path northwest to the back of the fort grounds and look for a colorful interpretive sign titled “Separate Worlds”. In the paragraph under the title (starts with the words "To us today"), in the 5th line what is the 3rd word ______?

To create the mystery word, put the word from the second question on the end of the word from the first question (without spaces). Paste the mystery word into this URL (replacing the question marks “???” with the mystery word):
