Geocache Description:

4 Wells is a popular destination for 4WDs. Once there, finding the cache is quite straight forward.

The following is an extract from the log of Scarinian: I was desperate for water, my throat was parched. In this baking sun I felt I had no choice but to take the risk and replenish my leather water bags from 4 Wells. I approached the area in the dark and was surprised to see the wells below me. I then recalled the prophecy of The Wise Old Hag from Kingdom. “Beware when necessity drives you into the territory of others. They will know you are there and will not take kindly to your visit”. I could see no sign of the cohort of Emohdees that I knew were camped in the area. I had the bleak choice of whether to chance the Emohdees or hope to find another source of water very soon. I chose the former but before descending down to the water, I felt it important not to risk my treasure the Tupperware Container of Riyadh and secreted it just below where I lay. I then drew the enchanted Sword of Scalim and began my descent…

The fifth well derives from when the first person to find the cache looked into the cache site, failed to spot it and commented. “Well why didn’t he put it in here it is a perfect location.”
