The lindworm (also called lindorm in Scandinavia and Lindwurm in Germany) is a large serpent-like dragon from European mythology and folklore. Lindworms were associated with pestilence, ate cattle and bodies, sometimes invading churchyards and eating the dead from cemeteries. Lucky for you, this Lindworm is docile and waiting for you to find him in Milton Reimers Ranch Park. This box was inspired by PI Joe's box "Here There Be Dragons", and hopefully more people will populate this new area of the park with other dragons.

Directions:
From Hwy 71 go west on Hamilton Pool Rd 13 miles & right into Reimers Ranch Park. Go to first lot on left (Reimers Pavilion) and park.

Clues:
Walk out of the parking lot across the road you came in on towards the mountain bike/observatory area to the "pedestrian crossing" which is the "multi-use trail". Go right on it to a jct with an old road and go left on it to jct with the far side of multi-use trail loop. Go right to another jct where the multi-use trail turns right and another trail (old road) continues straight with a sign saying "Hogge Trails 1.0 miles". This intersection and the trails beyond are currently not shown on the park map. Go straight, crossing a stream bed and bearing right at sign pointing to Hogge Trails, to gate in barbed-wire fence. Go through gate and bear right past sign about Hogge Trails and soon bear right at jct with sign pointing right. Continue to jct at milepost 0.7 with sign about loop trails and a picnic table. Go left on Inner Loop to milepost 0.8 and go left off trail 16 steps to multi-trunk juniper tree with scrub oak behind. LB is at back base under a flat rock and needles.


Hike length: 3-5 miles
