The soft meowing sound of cats is just heard over the roar and crash of distant waves on the sandy surface. You see on a ledge just a few feet off the sand, too high for the occasional rogue wave to crash into, two boulders with a deep, what appears to be a crack in the center of them. ShimmerClan cats use that crack to get into their camp, as it is the only known entrance. Behind the boulders you find wide open space, almost all the dens made up from wide cracks in the rock walls that seem to extend to no end. A few of these cracks had to be blocked though, for reasons only a select few know about. The leader speaks from the highest ledge in the camp, also where their den is located. Strong winds often blow up there though, so footing isn't always the easiest. The warrior's den is located closest to the entrance, in a wide cave that is surrounded by brambles. The apprentice's den is located in a rotten log, appearing whole on the surface but really opening up for a good dry place. The nursery is located next to the wall, away from the occasional wind, and possibly the dryest place in the camp. You can almost always hear the upset squeaks of kits as they are dragged back. The nursery is surrounded by even thicker bramble, providing a great barrier for the queens. The medicine cat's den is located under an overhang, although a thick ledge protects the medicine cat from the possibility of the ledge falling. There is always a damp area in the back, and if you put moss in that damp area, it would soon to become soaked in water. Soft moss also tends to grow in there at times. Elders sleep in the den that is always in the sunshine, providing a warm place for their frail bones. Don't bother them though, they always have something to complain about.

If you are new to Pathclan, all you must do to find the camp is to follow the wind. It always seems to lead you to where the clan cats dwell. If you are a resident warrior, then it should be no difficulty. Two fat, short, lone evergreens stand close together to mark the entrance of the Pathclan camp. Once inside, there is not much difference other than the many piles of dirt that scatter across the area. Closer up, you will discover that these are in fact extended rabbit burrows that expand as you travel downward. The center of the camp is underground. All the burrows tunnel to the master burrow. The master burrow (called that by all Pathclan warriors) is a wide space underground where all the burrows meet. It has a low ceiling, like the rest of the camp, but is fairly large. There is a fresh kill pile and a small dirt dais (the ceiling is a tad higher here) where the leaders may speak. The medicine cats den is the second largest and a small pool of water lies just outside the burrow. Moss grows in rocks around this pool, and the medicine cat only has to take a short trip to the surface to reach it.

The ground is wet underpaw. You test it before taking a step. Each is precious as getting to camp alive without slipping in small pools of water. Pines are spread apart with low branches to leap into for saftey. You see a bit of a rocky outcropping with thorn barriers. You find the enterance is carefully laid branches that make an arch. When you walk through, the camp is warm with grumpy elders and playful kits. A hollow in a tree serves as the leaders den with a branch jutting a pawstep below it to hold clan meetings. The elders den is a tree almost destroyed by lightning. Medicine Cats sleep and treat sick cats in a pile rocks that stayed since the clans began with a curtian of moss that is sometimes taken down and used as bedding. Apprentices sleep in a clump of elder bushes. Lastly, the warriors rest in a hollow in the ground sheltered by branches.

A steep drops off a quartz and stone deposit, carrying the off the river in a splashing fall. Water trickles, straying down on a shelf that has been worn away, where the TrickleClan camp lays. Off on the left side of the steep the rock has shorn away to a one-walled cut, sheltered by the ivy and creeping plants that hang downwards off the edge. Climb through a tight tunnel that drains water to find the center of activity for this group of proud cats. Nests have been constructed from dry scrub and leafings from the hanging plants, around pools of clean, glowing water that collect from drips off the waterfall. The pools are about half a leg-length deep, don't collect junk from the river, and siphon back off the edge before insects have a chance to nest, making it the sweetest water in all the forest and is thought to be the source of TrickleClan's strength and name.
Go behind the waterfall, and you'll reach the leader's den. It's a nest walled by a sheet of light-filtered water, and cupped shallowy on each side but for the half-tunnel of rock used to get there.

The Joined Star acts as a space for the four clans to gather. The gathering place is between Needleclan and Trickleclan. To get here coming from Shimmerclan, you must go through the marshes. From Pathclan, you must travel over many streams. The Joined Star itself is relatively dry. It looks like a star with four points. There is an ancient White Oak in the middle with a vine surrounding it so thick a cat can jump onto it and walk around on it easily. Thorn trees and a gentle stream surround the Joined Star of the Clans. It is very sacred. Every full moon the cats meet here under a truce by Starclan. The leaders then share information to the clans from the White Oak vine.

Cats unnoticed wander here. The forgotten meadow are for those who wish to be left alone or those who simply don't live in the clans. The meadow and surrounding forest are certainly enclosed well, making the clans seem far off indeed. The Forgotten Meadow lies in somewhat of a basin, and most don't wish to climb the hill and get to the upper lands.
