Geocache Description:

The lost treasure of Mary Hyde



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…

  • 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.
