!! 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 – Mo
untain 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.

The Nederland Cemetery was rather smaller than I thought it
would be. One of the very interesting aspects of the
cemetery is a group of wooden headstones. They seem well
preserved. As happens in most cemeteries, it is the graves
of the children that are most difficult to deal with. So
many died at such a young age.
