Geocache Description:

This cache was placed as part of the 'Hub City Hides Like a Pirate' event on International Talk Like a Pirate Day 2015.

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES

The posted coordinates will lead you to the spillway at Paul B. Johnson State Park. Entrance to the park will cost $4.00/car and $.50/person over 6 people. That's not bad for access to picnic areas, playgrounds, disc golf, nature trails, swimming, fishing, boating, and a ton of caches!

Legend has it that one of the most notorious band of pirates to ever sail the seven seas would bury their treasure throughout the gulf coast to keep it safe should their ships be attacked. It's believed that one of those caches is located right here in Paul B. Johnson State Park. To this day though, no one has ever been able to prove it’s existence because there were no maps left behind… only pages filled with some type of cryptic code said to point to the location of the loot! Maybe you can decipher their code and find the buried treasure. Be careful though... it’s said that the captain would place a pirate curse on the caches to keep others away!
