Geocache Description:

Cache is a small camo'd container.

This is a very small, old cemetery in Tigard.

Sunset Pioneer Cemetery was founded 1886 by Trinity Evangelical Church, in memory of the Tigardville Pioneers. There is disagreement on the original name of this cemetery. One contributor thinks the name changed at one time and was known as The Trinity Evangelical Lutheran German Cemetery. No one has yet determined where the name 'Sunset Pioneer Cemetery" came from.

Please take some time to wander around this cemetery of days long past; it is remarkable how hidden it is after all these years.

The road to the cemetery is open however the fork in the road that veers to the right has a very large tree lying across it just a ways up, hence the "Road Closed" sign that you will see.
Please rehide the cache as well or better than you found it; there appear to be muggle trails all over.

Congratulations to Williams4 for FTF!!

Update: 12/7/08 I am increasing the difficulty/terrain rating slightly to account for difficulty locating the road to the cache site and the bit of a climb to get to GZ.
