Geocache Description:


Avast me Mateys. This cache be at the given coordinate. Be warned that ye must read the code of the cache.

According to the code of the brethren of Groundspeak and as kept by the great pirate mtn_man, the code of geocaching this cache used to be an Alternate Logging Requirement cache. But the code as of April 1/2009 does not require ye to speak as a pirate anymore. However, if ye be a true and good pirate, I ask ye to record your entry here as spoken like a true pirate (Talk like a pirate). Ye may also embellish your exploits as ye wish.

Those who break the code shall NOT have their log entries sent to Davy Jones' Locker anymore (see the code), but ye not be following the intent of the hunt.

If ye have a ship and a crew, ye may approach the treasure island. Set sail with care, for shipwreck cove may claim your vessel if ye not take heed of the warning.

If ye be strong enough to swim, ye may. The map be marked with your starting coordinate (public access). The rocks be slippery and the water be deeper than the tallest pirate, so be warned.

Ye may be able to cross the icy distance in winter, but be sure it may hold your weight. The briny depths have claimed lives in the past, so I do not recommend it unless you really know what you're doing

Once ye reach the island, the treasure be guarded by spiders. Reach with care.


* Bring a pencil or pen *

Arrrr!
