Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Florida Finders Fest 2021 Forest Fables geo-art, brought to you by the Forest Minions! These caches are not at their posted coordinates. For the mystery caches, solve the challenging trivia question, to determine the final coordinates. For the Wherigo caches, work through the play anywhere cartridge, to get the final coordinates.

In Ancient Greek folklore, a phoenix is a long-lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. According to some sources, the phoenix dies in a show of flames and combustion, although there are other sources that claim that the legendary bird dies and simply decomposes before being born again. 

 

There are different traditions concerning the lifespan of the phoenix, but by most accounts the phoenix lived for 500 years before rebirth. Herodotus, Pliny the Elder, and Isidore of Seville are among those who have contributed to the retelling and transmission of the phoenix motif.
