Legend of Tengu
There is Mt. Kasho in the north to about 16 kilometers from the Numata city area.
It is known as a temple of the long-nosed Tengu, and "Mt. Kasho" is counted among the one of "the Japan's three biggest long-nosed Tengu" with Takao dried yam medicine emperor, a side horse temple.
If I borrow an aspect of Tengu from a front shrine, and a return, a wish accomplish it in the case of the worship, I dedicate the aspect and an aspect of Tengu new one more, and there is a custom borrowing again another aspect from.
"A large Tengu mask" is enshrined in the front shrine.
Please be surprised at size of "the large Tengu mask".
Because muggle visits sightseeing, please be careful to temples.
Please withdraw from "the approach to a shrine entrance" to the cache point.

天狗伝説
迦葉山は、沼田市街地から北方に約16キロメートルのところにあります。
「迦葉山」は、天狗の寺として知られ、高尾山薬王院、鞍馬寺と共に「日本三大天狗」の一つに数えられています。
参拝の際には、拝殿から天狗の面を借りて帰り、願いが成就したら、その面ともう一つ新しい天狗の面を奉納し、また別の面を借りるというならわしがあります。
拝殿には、「大天狗面」が安置されています。「大天狗面」の大きさに驚いて下さい。
お寺には、muggleが観光に訪れますので注意して下さい。
キャッシュポイントには、「参道入口」から下がって下さい。

I found it ! Fortunately, I was able to find cache though I was not able to look after the spoiler photograph because iPhone became an out of the sphere. TFTC!

iPhoneが圏外で文鎮になってしまい、スポイラー写真を見ることができませんでしたが、運良くキャッシュを見つけることができました。楽しいキャッシュありがとうございました!
