Geocache Description:


SQ represents Spirit Quest, typically a cache in a cemetery.  Please be extraordinarily respectful of this place.   Honor dawn to dusk hours here.  Any logs found to be after sunset may be deleted.

With a tip of the hat to Allenite, here you will find a reprise of his Aldrich the Elder which was retired in 2016. There are 2 distinct cemeteries here, each very different from the other.   I've copied his original write up as it describes this section well. 

"This cemetery has a lot of burials from the civil war and a few War of 1812 veterans as well. The old part of the cemetery features a lot of sizable headstone for being a rural cemetery. If you have a road map, you will see many of the names that are in this cemeteries are carried on in the surrounding roads.

The earliest burial I found was from Norman Day in 1840."

There is a fallen tree at the entrance, most noticeable due to it's magnificent size.  It is easy to step around to enter the cemetery.   You will have to park across the street in the other, newer cemetery.   Please be very, very careful to avoid undue attention here and respect the area.  There have been several caches muggled in the past in this place and it would be nice if this one could stay in place.
