Geocache Description:


Welcome to the DRAGON'S REALM

Scorched Dragon Offerings

Scorched Dragon Offerings
This location is deep within the Dragon's Realm and very difficult to get to. It is approachable from any direction except for the north, where a strange anomaly lies. No adventurers dare to enter this area because of how difficult it is to traverse the land here. There is also the remains of a mighty dragon, that burnt to death from a great battle that took place, to the west. The battle may have been due to some infighting among the dragons or perhaps humans teamed up with other woodland creatures to stage a great war against the mighty dragon empire here. It is not clear who was involved, Clearly the dragons that inhabit this land here were victorious, but it did not come without some great casualties. If anyone were to encounter a dragon here, the best thing to do is run...very fast! And it have any remote chance of surviving in this part of the land, make sure you leave an offering with the treasure that you seek. Some dragons do take kindly to offerings.

Information specific to this cache:
--Closest access/parking is from waypoints T5 (see Dragon Fortress [Final] cache).
--There is no trail to the cache and no one dares enter this area.
--You will need to bushwhack from the east (or maybe from the west or southwest), grasswhack from the southeast, south or southwest, or maybe even swampwhack. Staying partway up the hillside makes sense most days.
--The cache is a larger PB type container covered in camo tape. Also covered with bark and sticks.

The Really Important Information specific to finding this cache:
--2 approaches that I have used: a) from the east from the trail that starts off of Metcalfe (T5 trailhead), b) from the south west, follow the bottom of the slope that parallels Mountainview.
--The hollow carcass of the dragon that you find here has several horns and a peculiar looking claw.
--Make sure you leave an offering for the dragons!!!

More Information About This Series:
--All information related to this series can be found on the Dragon Fortress [Final] cache page.
