Geocache Description:

First in the "Fellowship Series" -- taking you to caches named after locations visited by Frodo, Sam and the other hobbits during their journey from The Shire to Mordor and back.

All of the caches in this series are full-sized caches -- round plastic containers painted black with red lettering. They will start easy and get harder.

We selected 'obscure' locations not mentioned in the movies, but of importance in the full-length tale you can experience by reading the books.

Woody End

"The woods on either side became denser; the trees were now younger and thicker; and as the lane went lower, running down into a fold of the hills, there were many deep brakes of hazel on the rising slopes at either hand. At last the Elves turned aside from the path. A green ride lay almost unseen through the thickets on the right; and this they followed as it wound away back up the wooded slopes onto the top of a shoulder of the hills that stood out into the lower land of the river valley. Suddenly they came out of the shadow of the trees and before them lay a wide space of grass, grey under the night."

(The Fellowship of the Ring, by J.R.R. Tolkein, p. 90-91).
