Geocache Description:


QT.Coon's Pirate Forgotten Barrel-O-Fun

Geocaching - QTcoon Pirates Forgotten Barrel-O-Fun

My daughter and QT.Coon wanted to create some fantastic Pirate themed caches for all children and adults to enjoy.

If this is your FIRST time Geocaching, please make sure you read the GEOCACHING 101 RULES.

We created this large cache, which resembles a small barrel.

SORRY: This cache may NOT be available during very snowy winter months as it may become buried and hard to reach.

Look for our other area geocaches - QT.Coon's LEGENDARY LOST PIRATE TREASURE CHEST and QT.Coon's PIRATE JOE'S LOST DIAMONDS to see the other things that the pirates left behind!

A short, but beautiful walk by a pond and on a long wood walkway through the woods in the suburbs, this is a simple hide but can be challenging if you don't navigate to the cache the right way.

This is a great cache for parents to take their kids out which we hope will not only give them some wonderful memories, it may also help get them in the spirit of Geocaching. Make it a wonderful afternoon adventure and locate all 5 of QT.Coon’s Pirate Geocache Hides using this LIST.

We have indicated that it is accessable by stroller but if you are caching alone with a small child in a stroller, you might not have the ability to get to this cache.

We would love to see you reaction if you post on social media. Share it with us!

Parking at the Magna Center (see waypoint) or limited parking in the side streets. There is NO parking or stopping on Mulock Dr. 

Watch for muggles! This is a busy walk way. Get to the barrel, sign the log without anyone seeing you! 

Oh, bye the way... things are NOT always what they seem and once you locate the barrel you will have a simple challenge getting to the log book!

(Kid tested and approved!) 

Please bring a pen to sign log book and there is a SMALL space for tradeables.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE.. Put the cache back in its hiding spot and in the way you found it. Thank You!

 

The Story of QT.Coon's Pirate Forgotten Barrel-O-Fun

(Written by QT.Coon's 7-year old BFF) 

A long, long time ago, when Newmarket was very young and just starting, pirates made their way through this area and stopped to take a rest. While they were camping, they hid their pirate chest because they didn’t want anybody to steal it.

(Please read the story from QT.Ccoon's LEGENDARY LOST PIRATE TREASURE CHEST cache to learn more about happened to the hidden treasure chest)

We all know that pirates like to eat. One of the Pirates in the group was there main cook. He always enjoyed cooking for the gang and he brought his own barrels full of Beef stew and barrels of his secret ingredients.

The only problem was that the priates did not like the cook's secret ingredient. Actually, they hated the taste!

When people living in the town of Newmarket wanted the pirates to leave, they worked together to chase the pirates away! 

When the cook learned that the town people were coming after them he quickly grabbed his secret ingredient barrel and hid it  in the Dark Forest so that he could come back and get it.

The towns people were heading his way so he got up and ran away. 

Can you find the Pirates Forgotten Barrel-O-Fun?
