Geocache Description:

THIS IS A NIGHT CACHE.

There is a legend in Africa that speculates that elder elephants, knowing that their death is imminent, leave their herds and travel to a place known only to them. It is called the Elephant Graveyard. It is believed this graveyard is the final destination for literally thousands of elephants and that their bones and tusks litter the area. This graveyard has never been discovered and has been the subject of speculation for many years.

What most people don't know is that thousands of years ago, elephants used to roam North America in huge herds. The ancient graveyard of these North American elephants has just recently been discovered and awaits you...if you dare.

THIS IS A NIGHT CACHE. The original Elephant Graveyard had to be closed to make way for the Neuse River Greenway. That really bummed me, so I'm excited to be able to revive the idea.

The coordinates take you to the trailhead. Follow the ORANGE trail markers. If your GPS is able, leave virtual breadcrumbs to help on the way out. If you do get lost, just head due west to find a main trail (bring a compass).
