Geocache Description:

There is a dirt road turn off that you can park and hike in. It is a short, but steep hike.
Please do not log in the character code, Thanks

Dorothy is quite simple really, she like to just ride her bike around ‘til she finds a place that she can just take a short hike and sit down to enjoy the view. Oh ya, she just got herself a great pair of hiking boots.

NOTICE:
The Journey to Ahhz is a series of nine caches. To locate Ahhz you will need to travel down many (yellow brick) roads to find the door of the Emerald City. To do this you must find the Good Witch of the North (north coords.) and the Wicked Witch of the West (west coords.), each of these caches holds those coordinates.
Just because you've made it to the Emerald City's door, doesn't mean they are going to give you the key to the city. In addition, placed in Dorothy, Toto, Tin Man, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, and the Witch’s Broom lies a special character code. All of these characters need to be present before they'll let you enter the doorway.
