Abstract
A container. The container has an aperture through which contents may be accessed. The aperture is sealable with a cover. The seal is opened or closed with a slider. The slider rides in a track which is congruent with the perimeter of the aperture. A portion of the track diverges from congruency to form an auxiliary track in which the slider may be parked. When parked, the cover may be opened or closed.
