Geocache Description:

You are looking for a 35 mm film cannister. Bring your own pen. Plenty of nearby parking. Take some time to enjoy the nearby tranquility.

Shibumi roughly translates as "Effortless Perfection"

This is not meant to describe the cache or the hiding technique. It describes the wonderful little Japanese garden and pond near this cache. The cache is not located exactly at the garden, so that the beauty and atmosphere will not be disturbed, but it is very nearby. I first was introduced to the concept of Shibumi through the 1979 book of that same name by Trevanian (also wrote the Eiger Sanction in 1972). Read the book, visit the cache, attempt to achieve Shibumi in your own life.
