NOTE: Hidden Frog will be relocated. I finally found a Pirate stamp to place here, to better tie in with the clues!

The park containing this box is named for Caribbean island belonging to Spain, and may mean "great castle". If you're still not sure, the park is across from a school bearing the (first) name of a late romantic swashbuckler.

Once you figure out where you're going, park in the lot of the afore mentioned school. Cross at the crosswalk, then immediately turn hard to port, until you find the paved trail that leads into the park. Find the tree on bent knee and turn right.

Stay between the skinny trees--first one is on the left, next one is on the right, then there's one to the left again.

Don't take the easy way out, and keep the exponential curve in sight. As you cross the next paved trail, you'll see a banded, forked tree on your right. Veer left to were the snag points to the sky.

After you pass the snag, take the right fork. See the dead wood? Keep the ant-driven carnage on your right. Pass under the leaning maple tree--keep walking, you'll see twin stumps to your right.

Take the right Y to where one fir tree leans from the left, away from the dearly departed remains of its twin. Go left here, toward the fence. A lone fir guards the enclosure, and a short stump lies where it has fallen nearby. Carefully lift the stump, where the treasure awaits you.
