Geocache Description:

Mount Doom is a volcano in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth universe.

 

It is located in the heart of the black land of Mordor and approximately 15,553 feet (4.7 km) high. Alternative names, in Sindarin, include Orodruin ("fiery mountain") and Amon Amarth ("mountain of fate"). The Sammath Naur ("Cracks of Doom") is a chasm located deep within the mountain. The mountain represents the endpoint of Frodo Baggins' quest to destroy the Ring which is recounted in The Lord of the Rings. The chasm is the site where the One Ring was originally forged by the Dark Lord Sauron and the only place it can be unmade. This cache is located on top of our local Mount Doom...well, San Bruno Mountain. No need to toss in any gold ring.
