Geocache Description:

An easy to find cache near a cemetary, an abandoned fort, and the ruins of an old Omani village.

This cache is easy to find, and the location should be obvious; however, it is not easy to get to!

Reaching the location of the cache will probably involve several wrong turns if you don't want to walk. If you are in a 2X4, then you will probably have to walk the last few hundred meters. If you are persistent (and have a 4X4) you should be able to drive within a few meters of the cachesite, but you will still have a short steep climb to get to the site. There is hard-surface road to the nearby village.

The cachesite offers views of a nearby village, an abandoned village, and an abandoned fort. It seems that the oasis/date farm is still maintained as the falaj was full of flowing water the day the cache was placed.

The cache was named for the nearby cemetary and for the contents of the cache itself. When placed, it contained several golden cats.
