The Treasure of the Black Pearl cache is based on the Pirates of
the Caribbean: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL movie.
Captain Jack Sparrow the swashbuckling high-seas pirate has come
ashore and hidden a map to his treasure chest. If you dare to
search for Jack Sparrows hidden treasure, you must first find his
hidden treasure maps, which you will have to follow using your
compass, to locate his treasure chest. Following the maps
correctly, will lead you to his hidden treasure chest. Jack has
chosen his favorite spot, a woodland marsh, which reminds him of
the Caribbean.
This treasure chest cache is located in the scenic Loantaka
Brook Reservation. This Morris County Park got its name from the
Native American Lenni-Lenape Tribe. Loantaka means "the place of
the cold winter" which refers to the Great Swamp and surrounding
area.
The park offers 5 miles of multi-use paved trails stretching
through the Townships of Morris, Harding, and Chatham. Parking is
available on Kitchell Road.
