Geocache Description:

Congrats to jerben for FTF! Cache #4 in a series of 12 to commemorate Gimli's fellowship in LOTR. Just before you you cross the bridge into Rivendell, err Rolling Hills. Beware of muggleses! Bring autograph tool.

Some criticize The Lord of the Rings for including few named female characters and thus accuse Tolkien of sexism. However, in the essay Laws and Customs among the Eldar, which appears in Morgoth's Ring, Tolkien writes that male and female Elves are in fact viewed in Elven society as equals, save for the fact that only the females are capable of childbearing and are thus viewed as literally holding the future of their people in their hands. Arwen Undómiel is a character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium.
Arwen is one of the Half-elven who lived during the Third Age. In Sindarin Arwen's name signifies noble woman (S. 'ar'=noble, 'wen'=maiden). Her second name or epessë, Undómiel means Evenstar (Evening star) (Q. 'undómë'=dusk, 'él'=star) Therefore she is also called Arwen Evenstar
