Dragon King Letterbox Hybrid

This cache has been archived.

res2100: I went to bring an offering to the Dragon King today to try to make peace between the humans and the dragons. It was a tough trek to get to his layer where he stays well protected. The journey was long, but upon arriving I found the King had perished and just his rotting corpse remained. For centuries the Dragon King has ruled this land. I paid my respects to the might Dragon King and got out of there as quick as possible before any other dragons spotted me.

Geocache Description:


Welcome to the DRAGON'S REALM

DRAGON KING

Dragon King
The outer edges of the Dragon's Realm was once a barren wasteland. The Dragon King enslaved all adventurers who journeyed into His realm. These adventurers were put to hard labour turning the wasteland into this lush oasis that is here now. No one has dared to enter the realm for hundreds of years. Rumours started emerging of the Dragon King's demise but no body of the mighty King was ever seen by anyone. Some believe he is still alive and perhaps in hiding. If you choose to enter these farthest reaches of the Dragon's Realm, keep your eyes open for the Dragon King and be sure to record any sightings of him. Even if you don't encounter the Dragon King, there are many dragons throughout the realm and they will not appreciate any humans within their realm. Be careful and move quietly but swiftly. You have been warned! There is rumoured to be an ancient and very hidden secret bridge that leads to this part of the Dragon's Realm.

Information specific to this cache:
--Do not park on 8th Line or 15 Sideroad. Use one of the recommended parking/trailhead points.
--Best to park at waypoint T1 (see Dragon Fortress [Final] cache) and walk along W Branch Dr to 8th Line and pick your approach from 8th Line.
--The grass can get very tall here. Depending on the time of year, you will most likely need to walk through tall grass to approach the cache.
--No need for any bushwhacking, except for the tall grass.
--Do not take the letterbox stamp. It is meant to remain with the cache.
--The cache is not at the posted coords.

The Really Important Information specific to finding this cache:
--At the posted coords you will find a number of directional signs with distances on them. On the sign where you might find many books about dragons, take that number and add it to the minutes.decimal minutes of both the North and West of the following meaningless coordinates: N43 36.343 W79 52.627. Hint: Add a couple of zeros at the end of the distance if it makes it easier for you to line up the decimal places to do your addition. If your calculated coordinates put you outside of the Dragon's Realm, then you probably added wrong and it's probably not wise for you to be walking around the Dragon's Realm anyways. The cache isn't that far away.
