SkyClan Camp

SkyClan's camp is at the source of River Chell, in a narrow gorge. All the dens are caves in the rock wall, with narrow trails leading to them. The lowest is the medicine cat's den, close to the river, where plants grow. The highest is the warriors' den; this den is also used as a refuge during floods, as the water never reaches it. It is arrayed on the cliff face, with caves for each respective den. There is a large pile of boulders at the base, known as the Rockpile, where the Clan leader addresses the Clan. The fresh-kill pile is usually placed under it's overhang, and the dead bodies of clan mates are placed here to be grieved for. Vigils are done here as well. The nursery is the cave just below the elders' den, with a narrow entrance to shield the cats inside from enemies and hot sunlight. The apprentices' den is a small cave lower down in the cliff side, some ways away from the other caves. The warriors' den is the highest cave in the cliff, with plenty of room for all of the cats. The whole Clan could shelter there if the river flooded. The medicine cat's den is the lowest in the cliff, closest to the water and herb patches. The elders' den is the cave just below the warriors' den; it is noted that the elderly cats never lost the ability to jump, and so could have the cave at that level. The leader's den is a small cave a little ways from the others, at the bottom of the cliff, next to the trail that leads to the Skyrock.
