Stagecoach Robbery

It was a hot, dusty afternoon in the Wild West when a stagecoach thundered down the trail from the mountains, its iron-rimmed wheels groaning under the weight of a precious cargo: a shipment of pure bullion from the Gold Baron's Reserve.

​

But before it could reach the safety of the next town, disaster struck.

​

Two ruthless outlaws, their names long since lost to history (until now), sprang their trap in the canyon pass. Guns blazing, they overpowered the guards and vanished into the wilderness with the bags of cash, paydirt, and silver bullion.

​

For weeks, lawmen scoured the countryside, determined to bring the criminals to justice and recover the stolen silver.

​

The thieves were never seen again. Some say the desert claimed them. Others say they escaped to Mexico, empty-handed, leaving their loot hidden in the dust.

​

Now, more than a century later, you have discovered a canvas sack from the Gold Baron Mint. The sack contains a bag of dirt with rich concentrates from the Gold Baron Mine, a gold note, and a sealed letter...the beginning of a trail of riddles, cryptic directions, and clever puzzles designed to mislead anyone daring enough to follow them into the desert.

​

You hold in your hands the very same clues those outlaws left behind.

 

Can you solve the puzzles, piece together their plan, and claim one of the lost 10 oz hand-poured silver bars from the Gold Baron's Reserve?

​

Only the sharpest minds, and the steadiest hands, will lay claim to the prize.

The legend is waiting to be unearthed. The journey begins. Solve Ebenezer's clues before Isaiah's story is revealed.
