RISK The Series: Ural
Ural (Russian: ???´?) is a geographical region located around the Ural Mountains, between the East European and West Siberian plains. It extends approximately from north to south, from the Arctic Ocean to the bend of Ural River near Orsk city. The boundary between Europe and Asia runs along the eastern side of Ural Mountains. Ural mostly lies within Russia but also includes a part of northwestern Kazakhstan.
The Ural Mountains extend about 2,500 km (1,550 mi) from the Kara Sea to the Kazakh steppes along the northern border of Kazakhstan. Vaygach Island and the island of Novaya Zemlya form a further continuation of the chain on the north. Geographically this range marks the northern part of the border between the continents of Europe and Asia. Its highest peak is Mount Narodnaya (1,895 m or 6,213 ft).
By topography and other natural features, Ural is divided, from north to south, into the Polar (or Arctic), Nether-Polar (or Sub-Arctic), Northern, Central and Southern parts. The Polar Ural extends for about 385 kilometers (240 miles) from the Mount Konstantinov Kamen in the north to the Khulga River in the south; it has an area of about 25,000 km² and a strongly dissected relief. The maximum height is 1,499 meters (4,915 feet) at the Payer Mountain and the average height is 1,000–1,100 meters (3,280–3,605 feet). The mountains of Polar Ural could have sharp ridges but there are also flattened or rounded tops.
The Nether-Polar Ural is wider (up to 150 km) and higher than the Polar Ural, with the highest peaks of 1,895 m (6,213 feet, Mount Narodnaya), 1,878 m (6,157 feet, Mount Karpinsky (Urals)) and 1,662 m (5,450 feet, Manaraga). It extends for more than 225 kilometers (140 miles) south to the Shchugor River. Its many ridges have sawtooth shape and are dissected by river valleys. Both Polar and Nether-Polar Urals are typically Alpine; they bear traces of Pleistocene glaciation and permafrost and have a rather developed modern glaciation that includes 143 glaciers.
The Northern Ural consists of a series of parallel ridges with the height up to 1,000–1,200 m and longitudinal depressions. They are elongated from north to south and stretch for about 560 km (340 miles) from the Usa River. Most of the tops are flattened, but those of the highest mountains, such as Telposiz (1,617 m or 5,300 ft) and Konzhakovsky Stone (1,569 m or 5,144 ft) have dissected topography. Intensive weathering has produced vast areas of eroded stones on the mountain slopes and summits of the northern areas.
The Central Ural is the lowest part of Urals, with the highest mountain of 994 m (Basegi) and smooth mountain tops; it extends south from the Ufa River.
The relief of Southern Ural is more complex, with numerous valleys and parallel ridges directed south-west and meridionally. Its maximum height is 1,640 m (5,377 ft, Mount Yamantau) and the widths reaches 250 km. Other notable peaks lie along the Iremel mountain ridge (Bolshoy Iremel and Maly Iremel). The Southern Ural extends some 550 km (340 mi) up to the sharp westward bend of the Ural River and terminates in the wide Mughalzhar Hills.
On this cache you are looking for a small camoed gum container. This cache is off a small trail near keg creek. It is pretty easy to find once there.
**** Keep in mind that you are looking for partial coordinates to RISK The Series: Secret Mission #1, #2, #3 and full coordinates to RISK The Series: Capture the Flag.PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE COORIDINATES FROM CONTAINER
************************************************************************ ******* NOT ALL CACHES WILL HAVE COORDS IN THEM. PLEASE DO NOT PUT CLUES OF HAVING FOUND OR HAVING NOT FOUND COORDS IN YOUR LOGS. THESE LOGS WILL BE DELETED. BELOW IS HOW YOU WILL FIND THE COORDS ********************** ************************************************************************
One Territory out of each country will give you 1 part of the coordinates. For example a North American territory may give you N 00 00.000 for Secret Mission #? and an Asian territory may give you W 00 00.000 for the same mission. It will look like this when you find the code.
Risk The Series: Secret Mission #1 N 00 00.000
Or
Risk The Series: Secret Mission #1 W 000 00.000
Put the coordinates that you found for the matching missions together to find the location of that Mission.
****To find “RISK The Series: Capture the Flag” you must First find a territory that has the Coordinates to the final to capture the flag, Each territory can be found by putting in “RISK The Series”. For a specific territory add the territory name, for example: “RISK The Series: Eastern United States”.
