The Treasure Hunt/Old Lighthouse Site

A picture of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, taken from the original site of where it stood for many years.


Some pictures of the "treasure hunt". This was meant to be at the end, but can't seem to move it - the chest after being dug up.





At the site where the other part of the treasure map was supposed to be. This is where the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse stood for several years, before it was moved to prevent further erosion from the ocean. There remains a circle of stones that were part of the foundation. Each stone lists lighthouse keepers of the lighthouse and the year(s) they were there, such as this one below:


This stone just has what the stones are about. And also has my niece's shoes on it. :-)






And lastly, the futile hunt in the middle of the stones for the treasure map, which was never found.
