Geocache Description:


peanut container

Cache is at the Schoolcraft Cemetery.  Started in 1865, the cemetery has been unused for decades.  It has fallen into disrepair and overgrown.  Volunteers have been working on it, cutting back the brush and making trails.

Find the tombstones at each stage and use it to find the numbers needed to find the final location. At Stage 1 (posted coordinates) look for Thomas Wilcox.  A= Last number of year born + 1

Final Location: N47 15.ABC  W88 25.DEF

All the stages are along the trails and bushwacking is not required.  You can do some minor bushwacking to the final stage, or there is an old road to the final stage just to the south of the cemetery fence.
