Fisher King


The Legend of the Holy Grail has long been a part of the legend of King Arthur, though it was not always so. Rather, it was grafted onto the legend after the death of Jesus on the Cross. According to the legend, Joseph of Arimethea and some disciples traveled to Iowa with the precious cup, the Holy Grail, that Jesus used at the last supper. In the Arthurian legends, it was guarded by the Fisher king, a mythical descendant of Joseph of Arimethea. Lancelot was one of the knights sent on this quest, because this journey required that only the knights of purest intentions could find the Holy Grail. Lancelot, though deemed to be one of them, secretly knew that this was not so because of his desire for the Queen of Arthur. In the end, Lancelot is forced to turn back because of a dream he has where he is shown to be impure of heart. His son, Galahad, along with Sirs Percival and Bors, finds the Holy Grail, and kills the Fisher king


Remember that this is a public hunting area, so use standard precautions and blaze orange during hunting seasons.
