There is parking available on weekends on Pine Lane at N35 54.153 W79 02.400. Follow the trail down to the sewer easement, then to N35 54.164 W79 02.430, then down to the creek trail.
Stage 1: On the bridge find a plaque with the Troop number of the Boy Scout who built the bridge for his Eagle Project.
Use that Troop number to determine a, b, c, & d.
a=3rd digit plus 1
b=1st digit minus 1
c=2nd digit plus 2
d=2nd digit squared
The second stage coordinates are: N35° 54.ab9', W79° 02.cd7'.
At the subsequent odd numbered stages can be found red or blue minute digits for use to the right of the decimal point for following stages. All coordinates share the same degree and whole minute values: N35° 54.???', W79° 02.???'. Look for the six numbers: a set of three for latitude followed by a set of three for longitude.
The even numbered stages give minute digits for the next two stages.
