The Barren Lands turn from the cracked earth of most of QuakeClan's territory to a very dry sandy desert. The hunting here is very poor as only lizards and snakes make their home here. Vultures, too big to hunt, pose a threat to the warriors that venture here on hunting patrols. If a cat loses his way here and goes beyond the marked border, that warrior may very well not come back. There is no water beyond the border of QuakeClan and a cat trying to get across the Barren Lands will die.
