This Cache is placed inside of Resurrection Cemetery. (Visiting hours are, Sept-April 8:30-5, May-Aug 8:30-7) Some of the Caches that will be placed inside of the Cemetery will require a little bushwacking and some will not. I don't think I need to mention to be very respectful of your surroundings.
Merle Dixon is Daryl's older brother. A Southern racist and misogynist, Merle lived with an abusive, neglectful father and acted out against society, which frequently landed him in juvenile institutions. Merle participates in one scavenging group mission with the Atlanta survivors and attacks members of the group, so Rick handcuffs him to a pipe. When walkers discover the group, T-Dog returns to free Merle but accidentally drops the key down a drainpipe and leaves him behind, after securing the entrance to the roof.[4] Rick, T-Dog, and others return later to rescue Merle, but it is revealed that Merle had already escaped – having cut off his own cuffed hand in order to escape from the walkers.[5] The group finds evidence that Merle survived his self-mutilation and escaped from the building he was trapped on; moreover, he may have stolen their truck to escape Atlanta. When T-Dog's injured arm becomes infected, Daryl gives him ampicillin from the stash Merle cached on his motorcycle, revealing Merle was a drug dealer.[6] In the second season, Merle briefly appears in Daryl's hallucination, telling him the rest of the group doesn't care about Daryl and he is the only one who ever will. Merle returns in "Walk with Me", alive and residing at Woodbury, a thriving settlement in a ravaged town run by the malicious Governor. His stump has been concealed with a wrist cover that ends in a bayonet. He served as The Governor's second-in-command, but The Governor turns on him after Merle fails to kill Michonne, who later returns, kills The Governor's zombified daughter, Penny, and stabs The Governor in the eye. After Rick's group rescues him and Daryl, Merle is forced to join Rick's group at the prison, where he has difficulty adjusting. He attempts to prove himself by bringing Michonne to The Governor, but later changes his plan by letting Michonne go in order to take on The Governor himself. He kills eight of The Governor's henchmen (thereby improving the ability of Rick's small group to prevail in the upcoming war with The Governor's largely untrained army), but his ultimate plan fails, as The Governor kills him. Merle reanimates as a walker, and a heartbroken Daryl kills him.
