Geocache Description:

The cache is located just off a main trail in Shiratani Unsuikyo, the Yaku Sugi tourist hiking area in the northern part of Yakushima.

We made our first cache, in Yakushima, a World Heritage site with many beautiful mountains, trees, granite formations and wildlife. Shiratani Unsuikyo is a hiking area rated by most as Easy to Low, mainly due to the elevation changes and the moisture in the area that makes it slick at times. Shiratani offers a few trail loops, with a few extensions to reach Sugi not along the main path. This cache is on an extension in the southern part of the area, and is tucked back away from the trail enough to avoid the average hiker looking around. The cache itself is a small tupperware type container, with a clear blue lid, and with a pen and log book. We put a few items in it to start it out, including a cute red dog magnet from "At the feet of Tokyo Tower". The cache is a bit off the path, so you can search around with little chance of being seen. The area is a bit large, but it is relatively flat. GPS reception was good.

Admin Note: The hider of this cache is unable to maintain it. The first finder is requested to remove the cache. It will be archived after the first find. Thanks.
