Geocache Description:

The Whatcom Spirit Quest is a series of geocaches that will take you to small rural cemeteries of historic interest throughout Whatcom County.
Bethany Cemetery

In 1905, 0.85 acres of land for the church and cemetery were bought from Gus Lind. Bethany is one of three cemeteries in Whatcom County located in a church yard. It has been the policy at this church to bury members on the east side of the church and non-members west of the church. On June 28, 1946, the cemetery was platted, with Andrew Hillerud, Secretary and Kermit Sande, Chairman of the Board of Bethany Lutheran Free Church, signing the papers. In recent years, a few graves were moved to permit widening of the highway.

The cache container is a small plastic "lock & lock" container. There is ample off-highway parking available at the park and ride located adjacent to the cemetery. Please park with care, be respectful, and cache in, trash out.
