Geocache Description:


      Arrrrr!

Tis your old friend Captain Soggybottom of the good
ship Angry Tuna, presenting you with a proposition
today.  Somewhere in the forsaken wilds of these
new colonies, in a place called Rancocas Woods,
I have secreted away a little treasure.  To keep things
nice and safe the location has been well hidden. 
If you be man (or woman or child) enough you may
find the secret location and walk off with my treasure.
The coordinates provided here will get you to a compass
that will help you on your way.  But wait, drop anchor
first.  You have to solve the riddle below to get the
right sign.  When the correct sign is entered you will
be provided information needed to find the final
location (NO GUESSING!). Be forewarned, only one
sign is correct, all others lead to great peril.  Be
always on the lookout, not all of the clues will be out
in the open.  Take note of all you see as you may never
know when you've hearda clue that you will need to
unlock this treasure.                                                                      


  

This cache is located within the Rancocas State park.
Vehicles are no longer permitted to  travel the trails
I have provided waypoints for two parking areas.  At the
Deacons Drive entrance there is a place on the left to
pull off and park.  At the Rancocas Ave entrance,
you can follow the gravel road all the way to the end
and park.  Driving in is not necessary, the trails provide
easy access to those on foot. All caches are located
near trails, little bushwhacking is needed.  That said,
there are no direct routes between the caches. Take
your time here and enjoy, to date I have seen foxes,
turkeys, deer, guinea fowl, hawks and eagles. 

 

                               Ahoy!

Look alive me hearties!  There have been scallywags and
treacherous dogs sniffin’  about for me treasure.  To throw
them off the trail stage one has been moved.  It is still at
the same coordinates, it’s just been re-hid to take advantage
of the available cover.  Look to the clues as I’ve updated
them to reflect the change.  Anyone who’s been this way
before and is lending a hand to a new recruit should make
note of this.   

 

                                          Huzzah!
