Geocache Description:

This cache has been placed at the Jericho Center Cemetery. You will visit several monuments throughout the cemetery. Some are interesting monuments and others are important Jericho people. Take the time to wander around and look at some of the other monuments.

This cache has been placed at the Jericho Center Cemetery with permission of the cemetery commissioner. He has placed the following restrictions on access to the cemetery and the cache:

1. The above coordinates are for the entrance to the cemetery. Please drive up the gravel road and park at the top in the turn around. Don’t drive on the grass.

2. This is a small cemetery. If there is a funeral occurring please come back at a later time.

3. The cemetery is closed in winter. We will disable and remove the cache when the cemetery closes.
