CaptainObvious78: I spoke with the family that owns the cemetery. Unfortunately they are going to leave the gates locked for now due to vandalism over the last few years. Going to have to let this one go.

Geocache Description:

This can be a quick P&G micro, or it can be tricky depending on how your GPSr is acting at the time due to the area. However, it should be alot of fun.
