The geo-map shows this as Isidora Cemetery, but the various signs at the actual site reveal it to be San Isidro. This is an exclusively Hispanic graveyard, with the oldest burial dating to 1909. It remains in use, with an interment as recent as 2011, and it appears that services are held here once a month.
The grounds are somewhat loosely maintained, but they are certainly filled with color from the assorted plastic flowers and pinwheels and other decorations left at various graves. Note that the headstones come in a wide variety, including two or three wooden ones that appear to be homemade, and others that may be poured concrete. Several more elaborate ones in the far right corner from the gate feature Catholic iconography.
This is a fenced site, but the gate is unlocked. Be careful not to smack your head on the low crossbar when entering! The cache is on the grounds near a sign to the left of the entrance.
