MountainClan

MountainClan is one of the Clans in the MSFBR territories. They have the smallest camp, but a pretty large territory.

MountainClan used to be named DuneClan, after it's original leader, Dune. When the Clans had to move territories because of a forest fire, Silverstar, the former leader of MountainClan, couldn't find a dune for the cats of DuneClan to live in. But then, she had a dream in which Dunestar came to her personally, and led her to a mountain with multiple caves in it. She gave Silverstar permission to rename the Clan to MountainClan for the sake of continuity.

The original territory of DuneClan was a sand dune near the stream, surrounded by a thick layer of oak trees. They mostly hunted fish and birds. When the fire came, DuneClan were the last to smell the smoke.

The new territory is less hidden than the other one. The cats of MountainClan reside on the right side of the river, sharing it with FallenClan (thank StarClan they're allies). Their territory may look small from the front, but there is a huge expanse of rocky mountain on the other side of the Highrock. The caves are stacked on each other, except for the medicine cat den and the nursery. The medicine cat den has a huge, wide open mouth, but the nursery has a narrower entrance. The warriors' den and the leader's den are stacked on each other, as are the elders' den and the apprentices' den.

The medicine cats have an herb patch behind the Highrock. They grow lots of borage, juniper berries, feverfew, and stinging nettles. The Grave-patch is also in that little space. The highrock is way at the top of the mountain, and the Lonely Tree is where the apprentices climb for fun. For a warrior assesment, the warrior-to-be must do the following:

- catch 3 fish

- climb the big-rock

- successfully complete a border patrol
