Geocache Description:

THE LISTED COORDINATES ARE NOT THE ACTUAL CACHE. THEY ARE FOR PARKING ONLY. YOU WILL HAVE TO DECIPHER THEM TO COLLECT THE BOOTY! Park hours are 8am-7pm

Recently my son and I were scuba diving off the coast on a old shipwreck when we come accross an old glass vase containing this map. After studying it awhile,it became apparent that it was some sort of pirates treasure map. Legend has it that pirates like Edward Teach,aka- Blackbeard traveled up rivers inward to stash plundered gold and jewels. Recent discoveries by coastal divers suggest that one of Blackbeards ships foundered right here in N.C. Once we turn over the map, we discovered some unusual symbols. Were these symbols trying to tell us something. They almost resemble a Masonic cypher symbol, but I'm not sure. If you know a Mason, he may or may not give away his secret. Good Luck.*******************************
