In the woods so deep, where trails abound,A scavenger hunt's afoot, there's treasure to be found.
Up hills you'll wander, through valleys you'll roam,
Each elevation up, a step closer to a gnome.
With your maps in hand, and hearts set high,
Go venture north, up beneath the sky.
Amidst the emerald green, a tale unfolds,
A hidden Irish gnome, has a treasure to behold
Before you embark, a modern tool you should wield,
Googling "What's My Elevation" to the device you yield.
From lofty peaks, to valleys low,
The site reveals the heights you must go.
With determination, you'll scale each height,
Your spirits soaring, with every sight.
The magic number 750, may seem petite,
But it’s the thrill of the hunt makes the victory so sweet.
So Wake up early, and hit the trail,
Watch where you are hiking, your feet must not fail.
Listen to the birds, the cardinals and the Robins,
Gnomes are cute, but not to be confused with Goblins.
