Bilbo reluctantly climbs up a tree in Mirkwood forest and breaks through the canopy to the bright light of the sun. He sees thousands of black butterflies and looks at the black emperors for a long time and enjoyed the feel of the breeze in his hair and on his face.
Mirkwood was the great forest east of the Anduin in Wilderland. It was originally called Greenwood the Great until the shadow of Sauron fell over the woods. The forest became dark and filled with evil creatures, but the great Woodland Realm of the Elves endured. During the War of the Ring, Legolas of Mirkwood gained renown as a member of the Fellowship, and after Sauron's downfall the forest was free of the shadow of evil once more.
This cache is located in a small clearing off a trail on San Bruno Mountain. Please note there are certain elements of the cache around the GZ. If you have a child with you please take one (not the cache). You will have to clean off the element a bit - but should be pretty easy. Please post it. As those elements decrease in number I will replinish.
