ohjoy!: I watched friends locating the needed information and when they found the cache, I simply asked them to remove it. And they did! Time for this one so far from home to open up space for a new cache.

Geocache Description:

There is the Forest Lawn cemetery on the outskirts of Pe Ell. I found headstones dating back to the 1800’s and some as recent as this year. Even so, the area is less than half used up. There are two sections of the cemetery. This cache takes you to the smaller section farthest back from the road.

To get the final coordinates for this cache, you will visit three headstones and fill in the letters in the description below.

Park and stand close to the given coordinates to begin.

1. The first headstone to visit looks like a large, tall log and is about 2 rows back/west and 5 to your right/north from the middle. Frederick Hoerth lived to the age of 4D years and A months.

2. From there go 2 rows back/west and a bit to your left/south to a whitish headstone. Walter Rollins of the Coast Arty. Corps lived from July 22, 1897 until October 2B, 1940.

3. You are now near the NW corner of the area. Go to the farthest SE headstone in this section. If you know me, you will know why I selected this one. Albert M. Baggenstos lived from July 21, 191F to May 23, 200E. He had C roles in life.

A = ______, B = ______, C = ______ D = ______, E = ______, F = ______

The final coordinates are N 46° 33.ABC W 123° 18.DEF.

Now take a little walk into the forest grove to find the final cache.
