The answers to the questions in the clues for this webbox are located in Fort Stanwix National Monument in central New York. Letterboxes are not allowed to be physically placed in national parks and monuments and other sites administered by the U. S. 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.

Go to Fort Stanwix National Monument. Park near the visitor center.

Near the visitor center is a colorful interpretive sign titled “The Fort Community…”. In the 2nd paragraph below the title (starts with the words “Limited space inside”), in the 2nd line, what is the 1st word _____?

Now, walk down into the fort and look for an interpretive sign titled “Powder Magazine”. In the 1st paragraph below the title (starts with the words “This bombproof”), in the 5th (last) line, what is the last 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 (all letters lower case) into this URL (replacing the question marks “???” with the mystery word):

Now, plug/paste/type the new URL into your web browser and you will have completed your search for the Fort Stanwix Monument Webbox.
