Our objective is to explore the highlands of Stag’s Leap.
Reaching back in time when the Wappo tribe ruled over this land, there was an oral history that this misty region was the realm of a supernatural stag. Generations of warriors tried to hunt the elusive deer. Those few who were successful in cornering the proud buck witnessed the impossible. When cornered, he would leap off the cliff, preferring to die rather than succumb to the arrows of a hunter. Mysteriously, no remains were ever found at the base of the precipice. The noble stag would simply vanish into thin air.
Yes, we seek the legendary stag of the misty heights.
