Geocache Description:

An easy walk from Highway 28, followed by a traverse across a steep wooded slope.


Twenty years ago I came across this place that speaks to me of love and friendship.

Although this location might suggest otherwise, Joseph Heisley's grave is in Virginia. Spec Joseph A Heisley (22 April 1945 – 25 June 1990) has a grave marker in Saint Marys Catholic Church Cemetery, Alexandria, Alexandria City, Virginia, USA. .

November 10, 2019: Recent forest work has removed numbers of trees, but the cache, the site of the Heisley marker, and even the large old saw blade remain present. I have removed the remains of the book of his poetry for photographing, and will replace it next year. The photos can be found at https://photos.app.goo.gl/3ybTATfN9bpS7t7dA.
