Geocache Description:



Spanning the globe and the seven seas, we introduce you to the infamous Captain Mary Hyde. Her ship, The Golden Cache, was the fiercest, and the bearded buccaneers and sea legged sailors reported to her. Legend has it that she ruled the high seas for many years, and found no shortage of riches throughout her reign.

We’ve come upon a battered letter, found in a bottle on the shore near Geocaching HQ, with the infamous crest of Captain Mary Hyde. It seems there is one last treasure yet to be found.




Avast ye! Join us for a swashbuckling geocaching adventure through daring feats and stormy seas. Make yer way through a four week souvenir journey to find the lost treasure of Mary Hyde. Up to six digital souvenir moments are up for grabs, and on Geocaching.com is something new to be had…

Some days you’ll be up, and some maybe down, but the only goal is to have fun all around. You’ll want some friends and a desire to cache because this new feature may show who’s first and who ye could pass.

* July 15-16 – Build your crew by attending or hosting an event and earn a souvenir. The more friends you have on Geocaching.com, the easier it will be to keep sailing on…

* July 17 – 23 – Though the treasure may seem far away, if you work together you’ll earn the first map piece one day.

* July 24 – 30 – Don’t be afraid to take the lead, to earn the next map piece you already have everything that you need.

* July 31 – August 6 – When you work with a crew, earning the third map piece becomes easier to do.

* August 7 – 13 – Challenge yourself to earn the last piece, or else the search for lost treasure will never cease.


Avast ye fellow cachers! All are welcomed to come aboard this becalmed vessel at 10:30 Saturday July, 15th. The event will heave at 12 noon. Come meet some local cachers if you are new, or old friends if you are not. We will be mingling, telling cache stories or just catching up. Picnic tables will be provided and if you choose you may bring your own grub.

Every Pirate, Buccaneer or Scallywag that attends will receive a token for a chance to pillage a prize or two. There will be a Pirates Loot. Anyone that would like some extra tokens for another chance to pillage and plunder you may bring an unactivated trackable for one extra token and/or two pathtags for one extra token. You may even wear something Pirate related for a token at your choice. One lucky Scallywag will get the Loot.

Your first souvenir can be earned by attending this event. Arrrr you with us? Pledge your participation by logging a "will attend" below and start your adventure.
