!! Exciting New Cache Series!!
“COLORADO SPIRIT
QUEST”
The Colorado
Spirit Quest is a series of Caches placed by many individuals, near
cemeteries and historic sites in hopes of paying respect to the
many pioneer ancestors that have ‘walked’ before
us.
There are hundreds of
cemeteries in the rural and mountain communities across
Colorado. This series will introduce you to many of
them.
The cache
pages will provide a virtual history tour of the cemeteries and
tombstones.
COLORADO
SPIRIT QUEST is not affiliated with any other ‘Spirit
Quest’ group. Special thanks and credit are given
to SixDogTeam who started the Indiana Spirit Quest in 2004. The
idea has rapidly spread into many states.
The CSQ
endeavor is an enormous and relentless task. It cannot be
accomplished by just one or two people. This project will
only flourish if there is a multitude of volunteer cachers
willing to place these caches.
After
locating the cache container, take some time to reflect back on the
lives of those pioneers and the effort it took to make Colorado
such a great state.
If you are interested in
joining the “Walking Through History Clan” contact may
be made by sending an e-mail to the owner of “Colorado Spirit
Quest #1 – Mountain
Passage”. Use the ‘Send Message” link at
the center of the page of their profile.
Each person that places a CSQ cache is responsible for its
maintenance.
REMEMBER:
If
you are APPREHENSIVE about cemeteries – AVOID
this series.

On our way back from placing caches on 4x4 roads for this cache
series, we happened onto this cemetery. Even though we were running
late, we made the turn for Colorado 9 and were about to make the
turn into the cemetery when a fox crossed the road in front of us.
He had dinner in his mouth. The center of the picture of the
cemetery shows his backside as he headed off through the fence.
This is an interesting cemetery because part of it has been left
natural and part is manicured. I have never seen anything like it
before. There was also an unusual message on one of the markers
(see the picture)
You are looking for a 35mm container.

MY WIFES KNEE IMPROVES HER CONDITION. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANYBODY
THAT CAN PUT OUT A MICRO IN THE OBVIOUS SPOT FOR ME. I WILL GET UP
THERE AS SOON AS I CAN BUT IT MAY BE AWHILE.
