Geocache Description:

This micro tube cache is placed inside the fence on your right in Saint Joseph Cemetery. You can drive right up to the gate, then it's a short walk and 2 feet of bushwhacking. Do not cross over to the creekside. Please use cemetery etiquette. Bring your own pen. Log only. NOTE: Not for children because there is barbed wire on certain sections of the wire fence.

In 2019, BEAR747 adopted this cache. We hope you enjoy the hunt. Our family, BEAR747, calls this the North Forty! O'Fallon Troy Road is 4 miles north of O'Fallon center. There is no commerce in this area. Just what remains of the active family farms dating back to the early 1800's. While farm equipment used to travel this road for nearly 200 years, they no longer travel on it. Subdivisions now line North and South sides of O'Fallon Troy Rd. The Sheriff's department watches over this newly paved road (2012). One day, all the farms will be gone and small cemeteries like this one will live on as a testament of those early settlers.

Congratulations to awanderer for FTF!
