The name Dragon Slayer of Gorgonoth is historically based in Dreiburgen’s roots from when it was the Canton of Gorgonoth under the Barony of Angels. Gorgonoth is named for San Gorgonio, the highest peak in Southern California (11,485 feet), located east of San Bernardino

Memories
We called our selves The Canton of Gorgonoth. I think we were able to get organized enough to get a calendar date for our first tournament in AS VII (Oct. 29, 1972) Halloween being the only date available. We were going to call the Winner of the tourney the Dragon Slayer of Gorgonoth, however there were so many gopher holes in the tourney field that unofficially it became the gopher slayer of Gorgonoth... ~ Æoelwig Æoelfwigson
