Geocache Description:

Welcome to Egypt!
This an Egyptian caching adventure.
Put yourself in the right frame of mind and you'll see pyramids & experience camels trekking across the desert.

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

While in search of the location of the Mummy's Lair, I became hopelessly lost surrounded by Egypts mountains & the blazing sun.

Egypt has not only desert but also mountains.
One particular mountain is Mount Shayib which is 7,718 ft tall above sea level.
The highest peak in Egypt is the Jebel Katherina which is in the Musa Mountains which is located in Southern Sinai. Jebel Katherina is 8,655 ft high above sea level.
Other mountains that are found in Egypt are Jebel Gharib, Jebel Yelleq, and Jebel Hamada.

I came upon a large vase, inside was a scroll with foreign words written upon them.
If I only know what they meant, perhaps this is my way out?
