easy.
UPDATE 11-JULY-2011: Fellow cachers.. your looking for an AMMO Can.
The Cords bounce around a lot. Trust me, for some reason we get
different results each time we go out..This is one of Oki's older
caches, it was placed by the cacher who held the first Geo-event as
well.. If you have good cords, and think they will stay.. place
them in your log.. cachers be-aware --- you will have to
climb!..IronMan Style! This cache was created by one of the HQs Bn

can Original text from original owner: 2. loaded with SWAG 3. has
Geo Coin case holder We parked at the following location, N26
25.849 E127 46.837. There are multiple ways of getting on the trail
from there, you'll see. Hike the trail (which is very easy) to N 26
25.905 E127 46.949. There will be a house on your left, please be
respectful. At this point, if you go left and down the hill, you
will see the Yamada Stone Bridge. It's hard to believe this ancient
bridge was made by hand. If you go to the right, you will take the
path to the cache. As you walk the trail, you'll see many caves on
the right. It may be tough for your GPS to pick-up because of the
tree cover and your in a small valley. The cache is on the top of a
hill about 30 feet high. Coords should be good because there was NO
tree cover when I took the coords. The climb is almost straight up.
Don't take the kids up on this portion. This is the only reason I
didn't list this as a 1 to 1.5 for difficulty. The cache will be
next to some sticker vines in the open (since you can't see it from
below). After you find the cache, continue to walk the trail for
about 30 minutes. It ends at a tower that over looks the island. If
you got beat up on the climb to the cache, this will make up for
it! The coords to the tower are N26 25.293 E127 47.302 GOOD LUCK
and HAVE FUN
