This is a case of two cemeteries in one place. Up front we have the Pe Ell Municipal cemetery owned and maintained by the city of Pe Ell, Washington. In the back we have the St Joseph Polish Catholic Cemetery which was established in 1914. It was administered by the St Joseph Catholic Church which is still in town, but it appears that the city is in charge of the entire cemetery today. Like many City owned cemeteries this is maintained by the park department.

Given that this cache is located inside the cemetery please only search for this during daylight hours. While you are here please take your time and look around, and enjoy all of the history here, but remember to be respectful, if there is a funeral or mourners in the area please comeback another time. The cache is NOT located near any graves.

The cache is located a few feet off the ground, you are looking for a camo'd round cylindrical container. Please remember to re-hide as well or better than you found it. Hint will give away the location.

Congratulations goes to Hope4U, CascadesClimber and GeoMimi55 for the first to find together on 2-05-14
