GC1H7NY WRR 87 McIntyre Rd/WSQ South Koshkonong Cemetery (Traditional Cache) in Wisconsin, United States created by greyhounder

This cache has been archived.

greyhounder: Tree was in fact gone, but the container was found on the ground. Contemplated replacing, as this is a wonderful cemetery, but I think it's time to let this one rest. Might relocate the WRR for this if I can find a suitable spot.

Thanks to all who searched!

This cache is part of a series (initiated by BakRdz) intended to
