I need to continue tracing the route from where I left off. I've already followed the first instruction (Go East 3 km) which is marked with a red arrow. Now I need to follow the remaining instructions step by step.
Let me trace the complete path:
- Starting position: Bottom-left corner of the grid (column 0, row 0)
- Step 1: Go East 3 km - Move to column 3, row 0
- Step 2: Go North 5 km - Move to column 3, row 5
- Step 3: Go East 2 km - Move to column 5, row 5
- Step 4: Go South 2 km - Move to column 5, row 3
- Step 5: Go East 3 km - Move to column 8, row 3
- Step 6: Go South 4 km - Move to column 8, row -1 (off the map, but we'll assume it's at the bottom edge, row 0)
- Step 7: Go West 3 km - Move to column 5, row 0
- Step 8: Go North 3 km - Move to column 5, row 3
- Step 9: Go West 4 km - Move to column 1, row 3
- Step 10: Go South 1 km - Move to column 1, row 2
- Step 11: Go East 1 km - Move to column 2, row 2
- Step 12: Go North 3 km - Move to column 2, row 5
- Step 13: Go West 2 km - Move to column 0, row 5
- Final step: Mark a cross at this location
Looking at the map, I can see that at column 0, row 5 (the top-left corner of the land area), there is a palm tree. This is likely where the treasure is buried.
The treasure is in the top-left corner of the island, under the palm tree.
