The “Lord of the Rings” saga mentions five wizards.
This series of caches is in honor of each of those wizards. They
are the Gandalf the Grey, Radagast the Brown Wizard, Saruman the
White Wizard, Alatar the Blue Wizard, and Pallando the Blue Wizard.
To get to the One-Ring, you must visit each of the five
wizards.
This cache is for Saruman, the White Wizard. Saruman is a
fictional character in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium, appearing in
The Lord of the Rings.
Saruman the White is the chief of the five wizards, and the head
of the White Council, the executive body of those people called The
Wise. He mostly stays at home and out of sight. His colleagues are
Gandalf the Grey and Radagast the Brown.
The name Saruman means clever person. In Tolkien's work The Lord
of the Rings Gandalf and Saruman both play important roles.
Take note of the number in the container lid. This will assist
you with the final cache in the series “The One
Ring.”
All of the caches in this series have been approved by the City
of Eden Prairie. Please obey all park rules (Hours are 6 AM to 10
PM daily). The trails are not cleared during the winter months.
Deer are frequently seen in this park and their trails can be very
useful. Office attire not recommended.
