► GulchClan cats have one of the most treacherous territories, with sharply uneven terrain and stones bulging randomly out from the ground below. But, with such challenging terrain comes great protection and prowess. They're often described as "fend-for-yourself" kind of cats, only helping those who can give something in return, be it a favor or resources. Their sparse land has bred a fierce territorial nature deep within the Clan, and almost any GulchClan cat is reluctant to sacrifice resources for the sake of another Clan. They pride themselves on their large, muscular forms and brutish battle styles.

territory layout
► The gulch that GulchClan calls their home is rather unappealing to the other Clans, with only the occasional tree dotting the landscape and extremely rugged ground. Rather than the towering heights of CloudClan, GulchClan is the polar opposite, finding comfort in the divets and small caves found scattered across their landscape. The GulchClan camp is hidden in one of these earthen indentations, with a cave for the leader and medicine cat while smaller pine-shapen dens act as homes for the rest of the Clan cats. A moderately-sized creek runs along its border and enters into GladeClan, who also shares the prey of the creek. Some common prey found here includes beetles, mice, adders, vultures, fish, toads, and rats.

► Test of Agility: Living amongst so many unlevel ledges, the GulchClan cats often practice to enhance their skills in agility. Once every moon, the deputy and leader choose a group of warriors and apprentices to participate in many challenges, often races involving carrying prey or large rocks, as they race to test the lightness in each cat's foot. The nature of each competition can vary greatly, but the cat with the most victories will be the center of a small celebration among the Clan.
► Spiritual Stone Homage: Every Clan cat able to walk/run is tasked with finding the most beautiful, unique rock within their territory. The deputy and leader will act as judges as each cat brings their chosen stone forwards, and the stone chosen by the leader/deputy will be placed atop a large boulder towards the edge of the camp to act as an homage for StarClan.
