Geocache Description:

A puzzle with a purpose, this game, Tracking the Dragon, was conceived by Wild Olympic Salmon as a way for people to learn about water, and it takes us all over East Jefferson County.

There are 12 bronze dragon tracks, which represent a phase of the hydrologic cycle: sedimentary rock, glaciers, clouds, rain, streams, freshwater wetlands, rivers, soil water, groundwater, estuaries, Puget Sound, Hood Canal, and the sea.

Dragon tracks are bronze, about two feet long, and you can make rubbings of them with thin paper and crayon. And so we are attempting to locate the 12 tracks ( actually some are missing, but we are finding the locations where they were so that we can continue the story). Join us on our adventure. Today we hiked into mountains, and along seashores, sometimes finding them, sometimes not....why didn't they use a GPS and get coordinates???

This track represents rain, and is placed in one the rainiest spots in Jefferson County. Be prepared!

It is in Lake Leland Park; the clues read as follows.

From the water pump in the County Park picnic grounds, head up a knoll toward the campground. The track is on a clump of Oregon grape.

So come and see...is it there? The cache is NOT in Oregon grape, but hangs around close by.
