Geocache Description:


The Gunakadeit is a benevolent monster of Tlingit origin.  The story goes that a man who was constantly harassed by his wife's mother killed a sea monster and skinned it.  Upon donning the skin, the man was able to assume it's powers and was able to swim down to the monster's home under the sea.  He was also able to capture food which he left on the beach near his village so that no one in the village went hungry.  It is said to be good luck to view the Gunakadeit.
