This here be the start t' a 12 page Pirate story adventurrrre .........
Th' bold young band of smugglers from th' north they did a' sail
They rode th' waves through Cripple Creek
an' never saw th' jail
They filled th' ship with contraband
of gold an' jewels an' rum
an' hoped th' fog was thick enuff th' navy t' outrun....
Ahoy me maties!
Raise yer sails an' hoist yer colors fer an adventurrrre out on a high sea of Colorado...
I be tellin' ye a story`bout a band o' rogues an' scalliwags who sailed th' currents of th' mighty Sea....
Arrrrggghh,This might be a tall tale, but it`s a worth a tellin'.
Tis th' legend of th' Dirty Sally...a ship...nay, boat...
{ fer callin' it a ship might be too grand a name fer that pathetic vessel...}
an' it`s motley, salty, dirtbag of a crew.
Dirtbags they might be but they were good in a fight an' knew th' sea.
They loved their loot an' their rum...
an' not always in that order.
Salt infested souls they were, but a more loyal lot of seadogs
ye would be hard pressed t' find on th' whole of th' seven seas.
Arrrrggghhh, that be th' tale I be tellin' ye in this 12 page
tale twister of a cache series.
So batten yer hatches, an' hoist yer sails we be a' sailin' th' Skagway Sea!
Thar be twists an' turns t' this pirate tale... Not to scare ya, but this thar storyline cache series has 12 pages, 17 stages, puzzles, traditionals, multi`s, mystery caches... twists and tricks and turns.... an' o' course treasure t' be found....so ye might want t' pay attention t` the story ..including the clues hidden along the way...this here be no cache and dash...this here be an adventurrrre!!
No pirate worth his salt would be caught on the trail without...
red, yellow, blue and black pencils, pens, markers or crayons
a notebook
spyglass/ magnifying glass
bug spray ( in summer months )
sunscreen
long pants/ long sleeve shirt
gloves
hat
hiking shoes/boots
snacks/something to drink
and o' course his/her navigational device
I also HIGHLY recommend bringing a partner along... :)
Please note: The co~ords are not always spot on for any of the pages...and can be up to 30 feet or more off due to the canyon, the mountains, cliffs and trees...so just persevere if you don`t just walk right up to it and find it right away...I would also expect to be out there for at least 4~6 hours ....PLEASE no spoiler pics ....
02/02/2019 By YamaGypsy We decided to come up to Skaguay and explore with our snowshoes. First cache of the morning. Just as we were ready to give up I spotted it. Sl, thanks!
01/02/2018 By gocolavs Out with the very hairy Garri-sons. TFTC I should have been more forward thinking and brought my geocaching journal. I had a lot of thoughts I forgot along my hike in the woods.
09/04/2017 By seaserpent888 While other stages gave us problems, this stage is in great condition and the container is great! Man that is a steep hill! SL, TFTC!
06/30/2017 By COpackrat I've been looking forward to this series since it came out, but wasn't able to get down here to the lake until today. Great cache and "camo" - thanks for the hide!!
09/18/2015 By lesslost2 We embarked on our voyage across the Skagway Sea and its primary tributary today, planning for eight stops while we wait for the tenth stop to be made shipshape again. We speak pirate about as well as we speak most other languages, so we will present our results in what has to pass as our best English. A FAV here for the series' containers. Noticed bear scat on the way to this stop: a harbinger of good things to come?
