Geocache Description:

Welcome to the FGC Series

This series is located in and around the Mulholland Land Preserve which is located on Pond Brook Road. For the most part (but not all) the caches are winter friendly and easy to find. The point of this series is to get you to do a lot of hiking and to give you one hard puzzle to solve. Don't feel bad if you can't do the puzzle cache as there are lots more to find. This preserve is owned and maintained by the Newtown Forest Assocation (NFA). All NFA properties are held in trust. The trails are for walking and equestrian traffic only and all NFA properties are closed from sunset to sunrise. Dogs are allowed but must be on a leash and under the owner's control at all times. Please be prepared to clean up after your dog. Absolutely no motorized vehicles. Please report to the Newtown Forest Association, any ATV's you see on the trails.

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

You will need to bring your own pen to sign the logbooks in this series.
