Geocache Description:

Bagheera


In the cage my life began;
Well I know the worth of Man.
By the Broken Lock that freed--
Man-cub, ’ware the Man-cub’s breed!
Scenting-dew or starlight pale,
Choose no tangled tree-cat trail.
Pack or council, hunt or den,
Cry no truce with Jackal-Men.
Feed them silence when they say:
“Come with us an easy way.”
Feed them silence when they seek
Help of thine to hurt the weak.
Make no bandar’s boast of skill;
Hold thy peace above the kill.
Let nor call nor song nor sign
Turn thee from thy hunting-line.
(Morning mist or twilight clear,
Serve him, Wardens of the Deer!)
Wood and Water, Wind and Tree,
Jungle-Favour go with thee!

—Rudyard Kipling,  The Outsong, The Second Jungle Book

 

 

This cache is being placed in dedication of the hard work of 8th Sackville Cub Scouts leader Bagheera.  It is also part of their pack specialty badge.  There is a random scouting badge in the cache for the FTF.

This cache is a small waterproof container covered in camo tape.  It is likely not winter friendly.  It should be a pretty quick park and grab.  As it can be accessed easily off Perrin Drive.

Since this is on Scout Property, visit http://www.halifaxscouts.ca and click on the Resources link to obtain information and rules for the Miller Lake Scout Reserve.   Please treat the area with respect to protect it for the youth who use it.
