Geocache Description:

Located in a historical cemetery. You are looking for a Camo'd Lock n' Lock.

The Plum Creek Massacre Occurred 1 1/2 Miles East of Here August 8th, 1864 The massacre was part of a concerted attack by the Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians that ranged from Julesburg, Colorado to the valley of the Little Blue River in Nebraska. Ranches, stage stations homesteaders' cabins and wagon trains were attacked and burned. Men, women and children were killed outright or captured. Some captives were tortured and killed, some were ransomed. Among those ransomed were 19-year-old Mrs. Thomas F. (Nancy Jane) Morton and 12-year old Danny Marble, both captured here, near the Plum Creek.

There should be plenty of room for trackables. Be careful if it has rained, however I was able to make it there with my car after a rain. It was a little greasy' though.
